I really feel like I can't cope anymore! I don't know what to do my anxiety is so bad at the mo I am not living just exsisting! My meds have been upped from 37.5mg to 150mg (Effexor) That was 2 weeks ago and I still cant cope. My fears are based on the possibility of getting chronic bronchitis after having bronchitis for 4 weeks recently, i'm terrified that it will keep coming back this causes breathing difficulties. I stopped smoking due to this. I'm just so scared, I can't live my life normally, I can't even go out! How can I get ober this?
oh im so sorry youre having such a hard time have you asked your doctor about some counseling or cbt maybe this would help

Yes I have a phone apt with them on the 16th so hopefully something can be done to help, thanks for replying :-)
Stay strong, things get better.
Hang on in there, it will get better. I'm also on venlafaxine and it takes a while to stabilise on an increased dose but when you do, you'll start to feel much better and be able to rationalise things more easily.
Good luck - you can do it.

Thank you thats a great help and gives me hope ;-)
Keep remembering that when you feel really down. I felt horrendous a few months ago and now I feel better than I have for years. The meds have helped a lot and I've since been able to put things into perspective and sort my head out a bit.
If I can do it, you definitely can too.
Let us know how you're doing.
