> I was on 37.5 mg and then increase the dose to 75mg on my own ..my doctor is a GP and it was me that suggested effexor..I didn't expect to get worse though...

Worsening on ADs can sometimes indicate bipolar disorder. I agree with IsoM that it all takes time and you should wait (as hard as that can be), but you might want to consider seeing a psychiatrist instead of your GP to rule out things like bipolar disorder and just get better care all around.
