For what it's worth, my dad had horrible tinnitus on both Effexor and Paxil. Now it's better since he got off those medications. It really makes me mad when I hear stories of psychiatrists not believing patients about medication side effects. They've never had to take these drugs, and they don't know all the weird, horrible side effects that can emerge. I feel for you and am sending warm wishes your way. Best of luck to you. If you need medication, maybe an antidepressant that works a little differently would give you relief without the tinnitus?
> Yes, still on Effexor but hopefully I can find something that I don't have the reactions too soon. I am confussed as to what is causing the side effects, when I talk to the Doctor (Phch) he doesn't believe that they are related to the meds.
