Hey guys,

I’ve been taking 75mg of Effexor for a couple months now and I’m noticing that I’m starting to feel depressed and having suicidal-ish thoughts. I’m taking it to help with my anxiety, and it definitely has which is awesome and I’ve noticed I cry a lot less now too which is also awesome. Kind of just like feeling less of everything in general...which in some cases is awesome like I said but I’m generally really empathetic and I just feel like I’m an emotion-less robot a little bit? I’m 22 now and have been dealing with depression/anxiety since before high school so I can handle suicidal thoughts and the depression and whatnot...I’m just trying to figure out if Effexor has caused anyone else to get depressed, suicidal, emotionless robot-y? Or maybe I’m just feeling my normal depression and I’m just taken back because I haven’t dealt with it in a while.
