1 was on 300mg. that made me very alert and focused but sometimes a bit hypomanic. anyway i am restarting it and aiming at 150mg. also this time my doc is adding wellbutrin 150-300mg to add a 'pep'. effexor took care of my psychotic depression, ocd and extreme exhaustion though i put on weight and sweated alot.which 4 me is a small price to pay. for me the ssri's do nothing for my mood- just ocd.
hopefully at the lower dose of 150 effexor will be better.
