Afraid to start Effexor

Posted by LucyAnn on October 1, 2003, at 0:15:26

Hi everyone
I have had some bad experiences with two different meds.. Paxil and Lexapro. Lexapro gave me a very nervous feeling (worse than my anxiety) and it made my arms and legs feel numb and tingly. I quickly stopped that and tried Lexapro. On the first (and only) day that I took it, my pupils dialated and it was very scary because they took 3 days to go to normal size. I am currently on Buspar 15mg and it isn't doing a thing for me. My doctor just gave me a prescription for Effexor XR today and I am so afraid of the side-effects that may happen. He said that this might help my OCD and anxiety. Has anyone had similar reactions like I did?
