Well, I realize that yesterday's message was prompted by PMS. Even on Effexor AND the pill, I still have PMS. Wonderful to be a woman. Placebo week is here and I become impatient, sleep too much, am very slow at anything. I should take the new pill without placebo, huh? Seeing my doc in 2 weeks, will have a talk about it, although I don't think it's been approved here yet.
Someone wrote that low dose of SSRI works against OCD and that low dose Effexor works as an SSRI. I'll bet that's why mu doc keeps me at a low dose for so long. I have anxiety, and I think, obsessive thinking (at least I used to), although I don't have compulsive behavior. Will talk to her some more.
Well... back to work.
