Thank You all for your support. I am 3 days into taking Effexor XR now and while my mood feels improved I do notice several irritating side effects. Constipation, agitation and muscle tension and also teeth grinding (Constipation and agitation being the worst). Also my head seems generally a bit cloudy. I have to ask what people just said a lot.
I tried Lexapro, but it made me a touch hypomanic and then I crashed into severe fatigue and all the while I had really nasty muscle aches. If the Effexor proves intolerable maybe I'll try Zoloft. All of these Antidepressants seem to have bad side effects for me.
