I was already dealing with some sweating from Effexor, and having recently added 50 mg of Anafranil... I'm sweating like a pig! It's crazy. I don't mind it too much, though. Also.. it wakes me up in the middle of the night, presumably because of increasing norepinephrine. Hopefully this se goes away soon. No med has ever had an impact on my OCD.. but maybe this Effexor/Anafranil/Seroquel combo will work, I sure hope so. I did get an immediate lift in depression when I added Anafranil.. and that was GREAT.
