I definitely did not notice a difference straight away. I started on 75mg Effexor XR and then up to 150mg. Things got worse before they got better after about 5 weeks, but I did have very severe depression...actually a nervous breakdown in the old terminology. I was warned by my psychiatrist that it would take a while, so I just hung in.
The end result has been excellent although it does make me feel a bit speedy and insomnia is a problem. Nevertheless I feel great and am enjoying life to the full. Hope things work out for you.
