Increase my dose? If so, how high?

Posted by tootiebritches on July 5, 2001, at 17:50:35

I've been on Effexor 112.5 mg for 4 years and have had really good results--except for sleepiness. Over the last 3-4 months I've been under a good amount of stress, which culminated 10 days ago with a pretty bad episode--very scarey for someone with 4 kids and stressful job). My Dr. has bumped me up to 150, but I haven't been able to tell any difference (10 days). I'm debating on going even higher, or trying to press on through this tough period (witht the help of some temporary Ativan for the interim). One of my fears of going higher is when will it stop, and will it be tougher to come down in the long-term. Any advice would really help. Thanks
