i found a way to deal with the side effects! a revolution almost... lol i drink when the symptoms come on there almost unnotice able one ur like 5 or 6 in, good luck in ur quests. bye for now
Effexor almost put me in the hospital! I c/t Effexor in 2002, yes 2002! And I still have a few w/d from it. I kid you not! I had Anxiety, felt like a electrical storm was zapping my brain every move I made! Depersonalization horribly!, Panic attacks and all kinds of things, It caused me to have Acid Reflux, also motion sickness for the longest! And if you think Effexor is bad, try coming off Klonopin! It is horrific.
I have been on 150mg of effexor for several yrs now. I am trying to come off of it because it raises blood pressure & I am only 28 & have high blood pressure. The withdrawl symptoms have been so intense. I have missed doses before & knew it wouldn't be pleasant but the past couple days have been really bad. The jolts in your brain & anxiety attacks & upset stomach (only to mention a few) are the worst effects I'm dealing with on my end. This is only my third day decreasing the dosage.
Well, sometimes it just takes a few days to kick in I think, but your doctor should have said how long you should be sick, diff for diff ppl though. Ask your doctor and if you are still sick maybe you should request a different medicine.
I love effexor. I was postpartum after having my baby and now I am on effexor and it works great, I am happy with the drug, it put me back into the swing of life and improved my marriage
I am on effexor 150mg one a day i have tryed to get off this addictive drug yes thats right i said addictive if i was told this i would never have started taking it.
I am on effexor 150mg one a day i have tryed to get off this addictive drug yes thats right i said addictive if i was told this i would never have started taking it.I cant afford the drug or to go to the doctor anymore i was hurt at home in may and cant go back to work my wife does work but with all the bill's we still cant afford Health INS when she makes only 9.00 and hour befor tax so she bring home about $800 a month dam the house payment along is $700.00
30 days is about $400.00 without insurance.i am off that dam durg now because i can;t pay for it i still have withdrawal symptoms it really sucks i hope that the ones whos sell these drugs all burn in hell for doing this to me.

the therapeutic dosage for effexor is 150mg 1 time daily. Your headaches are related to withdrawal of Effexor. You will often experience head zingers, or a buzzing type feeling, especially when moving your head. Hopefully your side effects will not last too long where you were not taking the full dosage. Effexor should never and I repeat never be stopped cold turkey
it will fix your deprssion,fixed mine=get off no big deal=do it slow=easy

The brain jolts were the worst part of the whole experience for me. I suffered those for at least two weeks.
