2. Hi Jack,

Wondering if you’d be able to break down what happened after I took Venlafaxine (Effexor) a few years ago and if there’s any specific things needed to be done to hopefully repair any damage.

After what I believe was a spontaneous CSF leak that happened one night and started all my chronic issues I was diagnosed with vestibular migraine around 3 months later.

Venlafaxine 75mg was indicated for this so I was on it for around 12 months (give or take the 3 months wean I did).

Within 3 weeks my emotions went numb, I lost my libido, erections and ability to pretty much feel love or any strong emotion. There was a very definite and obvious “change” but I believe I still had the ability to focus and enjoy hobbies etc.
