Hi everyone. I’ve been lurking for awhile now. I’m waiting for an
answer on my Appeal for Panniculectomy/Abdom. from BCBS. It’s so
frustrating! But, I continue. I was wondering. I have been on anti-
depressent meds since a year before my surgery. I struggle mostly
with depression around my periods…and if stressed. I was on Celexa
for about 1 1/2 years and then went to Effexor XR 75mg. I can’t take
anything higher than 75mg or I get really sick no matter what, even
with food. But, this is the thing…I feel like they make me… too
even…with no real feelings… I really don’t know what to do. I
just met a new man and finally, a man who accepts me as I am, but I
am nervous because I seem to have lost my “sexual passion energy”…I
guess that’s the best I can say. Do you have to feel so…blah.. on
these? Does anyone have experience with this? I want to be able to
appreciate the passion in my life… but I don’t know if I can. Has
anyone gone from Effexor to something else??? I would appreciate any

suggestions. Also, thank you all so much for your posts and for the
sharing you do. I am grateful to have this list to look to. I wish
everyone a wonderful day and thanks again for any suggestions. Also
could use your light and blessings and prayers or just positive
thoughts for my appeal to BCBS. Thanks again for all of your kind
help! Blessings to all! Sunstar
