hi, just wanted to ask some questions about effexor xr. i had to get off of the effexor when i became pregnant. i was on the 75 mg per day and went cold turkey. at one point i was yelling at my husband and sister to "commit me." i was completely out of it-the "brain-zapps", emotional roller coaster, etc... i sometimes marvel at how my pregnancy went normal. anyway, it wasn't until i was completely effexor free that i realized how truly manic i had become on the effexor. my primary physician had placed me on the effexor after my second child because i had some bad anxiety that was exacerbated by post partum depression. has anyone else had similar problems using this drug???
