In reply to day 8 ..should i continue my effexor xr story ????, posted by lilsis on October 1, 2002, at 8:10:41
Hey, you'll feel like complete garbage on Effexor XR for about another 3 maybe 4 days. Then things will start to feel a LOT better. The flue like feeling doesn't even gradually go away, it's just kind of like you wake up one morning and *poof* it's gone. I went through pretty much exactly what you're feeling a little over a week ago. I'm on day 19 of 75mg of Effexor XR.You should keep up your posts though, I want to see what happens when you get to around the 3rd week. I'm starting to get a HUGE new burst of energy from this medication. Gives me pretty bad insomnia since I'm too restless to sleep. I'm not sure if this is a start-up side effect or if it will be a long lasting side effect. 1mg of Clonazepam before bed really helps though.
> why do i wake up with my jaw sore and all clenched up. my cheeks hurt dammit. not as high anymore. barely high actually. but also am not as happy. kinda depressed today. just being on these stupid pills makes me depressed. but anyways here is my update. does anyone think i should continue these posts
