Effexor anyone?

Hi!
Effexor was not a good fit for me, but for many folks it does great!
Hopefully it will do you good! If not, there are other ADs that can be tried. Everyone is so different there is just no way to know how it will affect you until you take it.
I wish you the very best!

I did not have any side effects immediately. What it did for me was make my anxiety better overall, but at the same time, I became a very angry person. The smallest things would make me extremely angry and I would turn the anger inward and have an "attitude" which is sooooooooo NOT like me! I was becoming a person that I did not like or want to be.
I know that Kitt is on a high dose of Effexor and it works well for her though, so you see, everyone is different.
I hope it does good for you. If it gives you any problems, just be sure to let your doctor know.
Take care! :)

I take 300 mg effexor. not only did it stop working i sleep a the time. i was doing a little better when i was taking abilify with it but i had to come off of it because of high cholesterol. I see a new med nurse on the 29th and i am going to ask her to take me off of it.
