I've done very well on Effexor except for loss of libido, but I am still situationally anxious. I'm going to give Cymbalta a try next. Zoloft was terribly sedating for me and left me feeling almost emotionless. It sounds like you are not tolerating the drug well and may need to give something else a try...perhaps Cymbalta, to get the SNRI effect that your doc may think you need. Call your doc tomorrow and ask for something else!
Good luck!
