OMG! I have dreamt just like that! Dreaming but convinced
I'm awake trying to do something (the something
was to find the crying baby somewhere in the house)
and would wake up totally disoriented because the
last I knew I was supposed to be somewhere like the
hallway, kitchen, laundry room -- looking for the
baby and here I was in bed, obviously waking up....
what the hell was going on? This went on for about 6 hours
as best I can figure out. And I'm not trying to
withdraw from the Effexor. I've done this to lesser
degrees, and at least for me, I'm more likely to do
this if I've missed a dose in the last week or so
and over-tired.Of all the side effects of E. -- the dreams/nightmares
are by far the worst for me. I can deal with the rest -
overheating, night sweats, tremors, twitching....but
the dreaming will just wring me out and hang me out to dry.
