Well...
I'm taking Effexor XR for dysthymia, not for energy. It's been working well for the dysthymia, but after 4 months of taking it, I feel physically exhausted. Indeed, I have NO energy during the day, and then at night, I have more energy and I have trouble getting to sleep. I'm often taking zaleplon at night to help me fall asleep (Sonata brand in the US; Starnoc brand in Canada). We're hoping that my taking the Effexor XR with dinner will help me fall asleep without the zaleplon at night and will instead give me energy later, in the morning.
If that alone doesn't work well enough, then I'll add Wellbutrin SR in the morning and see how it goes from there.
