"i&#039;ve been on depression and anxiety medicine my whole life. i&#039;ve dealt with some crappy medications effexor was by far the worst thing ever. i&#039;m a 20 year old college student so i need to always be motivated. this medicine has caused everything in my life to go down hill. my grades are falling, i&#039;m constantly angry, and feel sick and not wanting to eat. i love to eat so this concerned me very much. and today i wasn&#039;t able to get my pills refilled in time, because i&#039;ve been ridiculously lazy. so now i&#039;m going through the flu symptoms that come along with this medication if you don&#039;t take it. i feel like balling my eyes out. because every move i make right now makes me feel like i&#039;m going to throw up. don&#039;t take this medication. it&#039;s not worth it."
