Music,
I switched from 300mg Immediate Release (IR) to 300mg Extended Release (XR). So, I'm not sure how long it will take for you to notice any relief on the XR version alone. I do know that 300mg worked fine for my anxiety but left me lacking somewhat on help with depression.
I also take Trazadone at night, and started taking Strattera so I have a few more variables to consider than just Effexor alone.
Sorry I couldn't be more help. I would give it a few weeks at least, cut down on caffeine, get plenty of sleep... you know. back to basics. take care of yourself. therapy also helped me deal with anxiety.
Good luck!
