> Yes, Effexor made me a little lightheaded when I was taking it, but there have been several that have done that. Several ADs in different classes also have left me feeling caffeinated or on speed. It's not just Effexor. But as I said, this usually wears off. Sometimes the side effects are too intense for some folks to bear and they try something else. Everyone's mileage varies. Good luck!< <Thanks again for your email.
On the 3rd day now...well this stuff does not let me sleep the night through...I was up at 2:30AM and crashed for 1 or 1.5 hours until my kids were up. Tonight I'll take a 10mg Sonata to help.
I have a little more energy this AM. Things are clearer looking. Can't really explain. Sort of like a veil has lifted. More aware.
Still, this evening after all my running around, I'm beat. It might be just from the lack of a good nights sleep. Still a little spacy/dizzy...not as much as the day before. Hopefully that effect will disipate.
How was your stomach during the first week?
I really do appreciate your help here.
Best regards,
Terry
