Why must medicines have so many bad side effects. Though I am 19 years old so I guess it must be safe and the side effects must out way me not taking it at all. I guess...... "Special warnings about Effexor In clinical studies, antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children and adolescents with depression and other psychiatric disorders. Anyone considering the use of Effexor or any other antidepressant in a child or adolescent must balance this risk with the clinical need. Effexor has not been studied in children or adolescents and is not approved for treating anyone less than 18 years old."
