optimistic person Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 You should go and see you doctor again about the side efeect your having sucg as the seriously lossing your appetite. All side effects are not present in every one. So with this specific drug or any other drug if your not confortable with it return to the doctor. Discuss what is doing on and he will most likely change or drug or the strength. I hope this helps Link to comment
Dubzuk Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 i personally dont think that anti-depressants help at all, they dont comfront the problems, they just cover them up, i think that people who r depresst need the talk to people and deal with the problems Link to comment
TheRedQueen Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 When I was on effexor, I experienced a loss in appetite as well, I don't know it kind of worked but it made me feel too strange, perhaps your shrink should lower your dose. best of luck Link to comment
