Hey guys,
recently started effexor (like 4.5 weeks ago), am now for 3.5 weeks on 75 mg. Side effects are increasing and were pretty tough to begin with. No therapeutic effect whatsoever. I have been for 15 weeks on escitalopram and 10 on sertraline, both of which didnt help for my anxiety and for both of which my side effects did not go away at all. How long do you guys think I hsould go with effexor before I can savely say it wont work? Ive been trying ad's for so long now and they make me so sick, its kinda hard to poison yourself every night.
This is also the first ad to give me mental side effects like increased anxiety and extremely irritable (thoguh never aggessive, more in a introvert kind of way). So ye im kinda annoyed that everything I try only seems to make me more sick, but ive tried long enough without ad's and that didnt get me there either. Feel kinda frustrated. How long do you think I should keep up the effexor?
Cheers,
me
