>Yuck i hate effexor. I am 22. I was taking 300 mg. It didnt do me any good. I used to take it with celexa. 2 weeks ago i took like 50 effexors, each 150 mg. I blacked out for 2 days, and felt like crap. Than i had no more effexor. I still have no clue why i did that, i dont remember. Maybe i was drunk. Than i got diagnosed with bipolar this week, and they gave me Depakote. So far its just given me major insomnia, and i dont have a psych appt till Oct 23rd. So i think im shit out of luck till then...
