I remembered that Effexor does wonky things to my appetite. Last time I took Effexor, I dropped 7-1/2 pounds during the two weeks I was on a sample package (142 to 134.5). So, my starting to feel ambivalent about food (I want to physically eat — comfort — but the idea of food sounds icky) is not a surprise.

I had forgotten, however, that effexor makes me yawm. Don’t get me wrong; it does *not* make me tired. But I yawn. Constantly. I just keep needing more air.
