Is there a direct relationship between the daily dose amount of Effexor XR and being tired every day?
I've been taking 112.5 mg XR each morning, but I can easily take a nap each day without any effort and I sleep well (8 hrs) at night.
Would 150 mg/day actually "activate" me more and energenize me? (I read/heard somewhere that the Norepinephrine component of Effexor XR only kicks-in at 150 or more???)
I'm feeling fine otherwise, but hate to think of a higher doze if it is MORE tiring, but if it is LESS then fine!
I find I'm losing motivation to do things although I don't feel depressed anymore.
Anyone with experience at different levels?

Hi John.
This site has several board and this is the board dedicated to topics of therapy and psychology.
The medication board is Psycho-Babble (one Psycho). You can get there by following the link at the top of the page. Since you'll probably get more repies to your question on that board, I've taken the liberty of redirecting it. The link is below:

Hope this helps.
