Hi! I have been taking the above combination for post natal depression and anxiety for several weeks now and I can honestly say it brought me back to myself! However a few weeks ago I had a relapse with anxiety so my psychiatrist increased the Venlafaxine from 75mg to 150mg four days ago now! However since the increase my anxiety feels awful and I have the feeling of nervousness/excitement which is kicking off my anxiety (if you understand what I mean) it's like I have a constant feeling all the time that something bad is going to happen and it will not budge!! I'm just wondering if anybody else had these symptoms and are they side effects and will it get better!! I have a 11 week old son to look after and I'm desperate for this anxiety to go! I just feel so horrible! I'm having to take diazepam 5mg which only seems to help for an hour or so! So therefor this meowing I have took a 10mg Propanalol to see if that helps! I would be most grateful to hear people's opinions!
