ive been on mirtazapine for a month and 22 days and I notice no improvement, I USED to take mirtazapine 2 years ago for about 2 months and the improvement was HUGE, the only reason I stopped was because I felt like I didnt need it and I didnt have insurance.. now I went back on in a month ago and its not working the same..

Im thnking about taking effexor but I heard it increases blood pressure, I already take anti-hypertension meds... is effexxor safe for blood pressure? thanks peeps

@TheTolonio Hey, I would suggest consulting your doctor about taking effexor with high blood pressure.

I've just started on coming off Effexor XR 150mg.

I was on 37.5mg & 75mg for two years without any problems, but since my Doctor increased it to 150mg i have changed, mood swings, impoulsive behaviour, so now im coming off.

I took 1 75mg pill and after some hrs I began feeling really weird, weird unpleasant feeling when I yawned, thing like feeling flattened out emotionally, it's been 3+ days and I'm still feeling it, hoping it runs out of my body soon, how long can 1 pill last??

Horrid stuff. And the withdrawals were terrible for a few weeks. Better options out there like amino acid therapy. Check out "The mood cure - by Julia moss". I feel alot better and more relaxed after supplementing with 5htp and carnitine.

I get brain zaps, awful dreams (out of body) and just sick trying to get off this stuff cold turkey. It is scary!

Hello. If you want to come off of Effexor XR there is a way. You have to open the capsules and take out just one of the little balls (pellets?). Do the same for three days, without taking more than one (this is to allow you body to adjust). Then on the forth day take out two little balls, do the same for three days and then take out three little balls...do this until you don't have any little balls to take out of the capsule. This takes a long time, but does the trick.

I read some comments written here and although i am only a Chemist and not a Neurologist, I bet that the most people here don't have the slightest clue what a depression "feels" like, when they are soooo suffering from a little brainzap or fatigue, when they giveup their <75mg. These are no little helpers, it redresses, in a selective way, the balance of Neurotransmitter in your Synapses. If you don't feel good over months talk to your best friends and family instead. This can help, too.
