Hi-
I've been on Effexor for a little over a month now and I had horrible beginning side effects. Look through some of the old posts here - they will be very helpful. I had the headaches and nausea and stomach aches. I couldn't sleep at night. Taking the herb Valerian Root did wonders, though. I slept like a baby with no spaciness the next day... I'm now up to 225 mg and pretty much have no more side effects. I have been very tired lately and I don't know whether it's the Effexor. Hang in there.

> Took ONE 37.5 mg of Effexor XR yesterday and I feel terrible. HELP...Am I having normal side effects or am I just sick as a dog. My head is pounding, I am jittery, got no sleep, agitated, sad, stomach hurts..etc. AND i only took 1 pill....

> I was given Effexor for a migraine/balance/vertigo disorder with associated anxiety. I feel terrible after one dose, no sleep and it sure adds to my brain fog, dizziness and feeling bad...Should I be patient and let the side effects subside....I hate feeling terrible and I know side effects take a while to calm down...but I feel terrible....HELP HELP
