> LinkadgeTry just taking the 37.5 and you should feel a bit better within a week or two. Do you have access to any benzo's, clonidine, or propranolol? Those will crumple the norepinephrine uptake. Propranolo, in particular, has made me actually tolerate and do not bad on Effexor. It won't work until you boost the Effexor so it can down-regulate the norepinephrine on it's own. It's like taking a horrible tasting cough medicine, and then you get used of it.
