> That is not too fast, I think it is pretty typical. My doctor had me on the identical dosage increase but when I got to 225mg just this past week, I got extremely dizzy and felt "spaced-out" so I backed down to 150mg. Am feeling better...less depression and anxious but am not 100%. I would be curious to know how you are tolerating 225mg and how long the side effects last. I would be all for sticking it out if I knew it would relieve some of the pain.
This is only my 3rd day now, but when I get up to 225 I will be sure to report it to you. I was pretty confidant about effexor until I looked on the net and read about all the withdrawl symptoms. Those scare the hell outta me. Hopefully, like others have said, people who dont get them dont feel the need to post about them.
