I am 21 years old and I started taking Effexor XR about 6 weeks ago. I am currently taking 300mg. I have been diagnosed with severe depression and it is the only dosage that seems to work. But I have noticed my hair falling OUT!! Not to the point of baldness, but massively thinning. This really bothers me as a woman, especially since I used to have very thick hair. Has anyone else had this side effect? It has come to the point of where I don't want to take Effexor XR anymore, but the results for my depression have been wonderful! What should I do?
