I was switched to effexor after having disasterous results with paxil and celexa. I found the side effects getting used to effexor xr quite disturbing! Hard time getting to sleep, weight gain, headaches, and excessive sweating. All symptoms are gradually subsiding with time, but now I have these extra pounds to deal with. I am also on buspar which helps in getting to sleep.
I am bipolar II and also have GAD.
