Went to the Dr due to stress on the job, elder parents, and new marriage. I was on Efexor 75 and my Dr increased the dose to 150 due to no improvement on 75. I felt numb no crying, no excitement just going through the emotions of every day life. In two weeks time on 150 I felt more lifeless and my hair is falling out by the handfuls. I went to see a dermatolgist and he told me I reminded him of someone on chemo and not to be surprised if I lost all my hair! Has anyone had problems with hair loss? My Dr has dropped me back to 35 and wants me to start Wellbutrin. I think I am going cold turkey. I don't want to be bald! Thanks for reading.

Because I sleep so much, my back and ribs get so sore. Also, I feel like my muscles are weakening. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Does that make sense? I have had this disorder from the time I turned about 25. I am now 35. I have been to several Physicians and 90% think it's depression. However, the reason I'm depressed is because I'm so freaking tired. It takes everything I have to cook supper and wash dishes. I just wish there was a magic pill out there to diminish the effects of t...
