Hi!
I'm taking 150mg of Effexor XR and I take it at noon. My doc instructed me to take it at bedtime, but that made my anxiety at bedtime really bad and made it really hard to sleep at all so I gradually changed to taking it at noon and I don't have as much trouble with sleep, but still have to take Benadryl or Unisom most nights to avoid waking during the night. I haven't tried taking it in the morning. What's your dosage and diagnosis? Good luck!
