> Hi everyone,
> I started taking Effexor XR just 2 days ago for depression, so far the only side affects I have had is a mild headache and feeling sick to my stomach. However I have been sitting here for 2 hours reading these postings and I fell like I want to Quit while I am ahead. Is there anyone out ther that can give me some good reasons why I should continue to take this medication????Linda Rose,
I am going into my seventh year on Effexor. It has virtually cured my chronic, near suicidal depressions. Based on my experience and the experience of friends, give it AT LEAST a month. Some people have a terrible time with Effexor side effects, but just as many people find that these effects dissipate with time. And with Effexor, increased dosage does not necessarily translate into increased side effects. The higher my dosage went the FEWER side effects I had.
Hang in there.
