I have read through the most recent posts here and wanted to state that I have had fantastic results with Effexor. In fact, I recently increased my dosage from 75mg per day to 150mg. The reason for the increase was due to the onset of sever depression, crying and just the feeling of helplessness...my PCP listened intently and when she told me she wanted to increase the dosage I hesitated but then agreed. I am so glad I did as within about a week or so I began to feel the veil of darkness lift. Today I feel like a new woman...one with a purpose once again.
I agree that Effexor...and I feel neither is Paxil or any of the other antidepressants aren't for everyone. This is where you need to report problems to your physician so something else can be prescribed that will work for you.
Good Luck to all.
