I have been on Effexor xr for close to twelve weeks. I am also on Abilify (used as a mood sta.), and Clonopine. The Effexor was just raised to 300 mg, the Abilify to 15 mg., and the Clonopine as needed not to exceed 2mg per dayand I will see him in three weeks. I don't have a job (downsized engineer) and really don't know how I am suppose to feel. Life is hard and I am looking for relief from the meds but don't know how much better to expect to feel from them. I do believe they have helped some. I like my doc. and he truly seems to care. He also lets me see him for practically nothing since I am on unemployment. I have a great wife and great kids but cannot get on top of this thing. Tired no motivation. No jobs in my area as of yet.
Looking for a friend to talk to, encouraging news not news of doom.
God bless,
Tom
