I forgot to tell you about my Effexor experience.

I've been on 150 mg. of Effexor xr for 3 years now. Today my pdoc upped it to 225mg. because I've been getting depressed a lot lately.

I sleep a lot and I want to eat a lot. I have trouble feeling full after meals. I'm guessing that's a side effect from the medicine.
