In reply to Suicidal. Change meds or increase dose?, posted by racer on June 5, 1999, at 16:42:14
Hi Racer.
Some people need much higher doses of Effexor than that, and I think raising it would be worthwhile. However, you really need to deal with your immediate suicidality, and I think you know that horse tranquilizers are not the answer. Is there someone where you are who you can talk to? If not, I would seriously consider checking into a hospital.
BTW it might interest you to know that sour cream is perfectly fine to eat with a MAOI. Actually there are ways around most of the problems you listed with various meds - so there are possibilities, even if the Effexor doesn't turn out to be the thing.
I hope things get better for you soon. Take care.
