Hi everyone. I think I may have to wait another week to reduce from 37.5mg to 25mg tablet. I am just really foggy. It is interesting to me how many of us are sleepers. I can easily sleep 12 hours a day and I have been doing this for years. Is this a side effect of effexor? I feel like I have slelpt my life away. Another interesting thing: my libido is starting to return. I actually have thought about sex for the first time in twenty years. Is there anyone else out there whose libido was absolutely killed by this drug?

My libido was killed, but now I'm 74 and hope it doesn't return when my taper is over!! Much easier this way at my age!
