Hi Jack,
Nice to see you again. Do not take APs, not yet at least. Ok you get a partial response from Effexor XR 300 mg and you have a lot of anxiety. There is a more logical algorithm. Did you try these augmentations?
1- Effexor + Lithium or buspirone (for 5HT1A reuptake)
2- Effexor + SSRI
3- Effexor + Remeron (good for anxiety and melancholia)
