> I was on 300mg of effexor for many years and would sleep 12-15 hrs a day every day. I had to get in naps if I couldn't sleep straight through or I would have a melt down like you. I finally got off of it and went on cymbalta. I am wide awake now! amazing how life can pass a person by.
Karla, did you have any problems switching from one to the other on the meds? Did you notice a difference right away? My pdoc seems to think that sleeping all the time is "fine" as long as I'm not crying all the time, but I'm so upset about my life "passing me by" like you said.
