I feel great, but I'm worried about the long term effects from being on such a high dose.

I guess I can never acquire a gun card

Hey Papa, I take 225mg of Effexor and feel pretty great too. Did you go from 225 to 300? Actually, I have seen people on higher doses than 300 so I wouldn't worry too much. Also, you are still well within the prescribing guidelines either way. As for the gun card....well I cant help there...but I imagine this is some more of your infamous humor?

Hi els,

Beleive it or not, it's the feeling good that worries me...I'm not use to this energy and thought process level.

Also I recently went on a few business trips (Had to fly) normally I am scared to death and my nerves are shot when I have to fly...for some reason flying did not bother me one bit....it was very cool.

Yeah humor, I'm pretty sure the gun card thing has been out of the question for many moons now...I hate guns and as beautiful as my eyes are, I can't see for s**t...I would never allow a gun in my home.
