Hi everyone
I've just been put on Effexor. For the most part, I liked the prescription, since I have a friend who's been doing quite well on it. However, I'd like to share a few of my concerns with you:
1. Impotence - I wish it wouldn't make me impotent, like Tofranil did. Delayed ejaculation would be acceptable, but being impotent would be a real problem for me, considering that the "other person" usually doesn't take it very well...
2. Sleepiness and energy levels - how do most people react to it, as far as those factors go? Will it allow me to keep exercising regularly?
3. Is my dosage too low? My doctor put me on 37.5 mg for the whole month, beginning with half this dose on the first three days or so...
Many thanks,
Ricardo
