> What do you mean about Effexor? I just started this about 2 months ago and like it. I have had zero side effects and while I do feel I have a bit more energy (I appreciate this as my life is pretty busy), I don't feel "manic" by any stretch.
Sorry, I wasn't very clear on that one.If you lean toward bipolar 1 or 2, Effexor can really send you over the edge. It landed me a psych ward because I went so manic. It was med induced mania. But the person usually has the predisposition to mania/bipolar disorder. Paxil was another medication that made me manic. Prozac is another culprit but I was okay with that one.
Yay that Effexor works so well for you!!!!
