I've been on Effexor since 1998. It blasted me out of a really deep depression, so was great that way.
I'm not really sure how it makes me feel now - my body / brain are just so used to it.
When I first went on it, I experienced dizziness, headaches, and nausea, but those are all long gone.
I didn't lose weight on it, but also didn't gain any, which was a relief.
Good luck with it.
