In reply to Re: Anyone had success on Effexor XR?, posted by Kev on January 4, 2000, at 21:32:43
I took paxil, zoloft and wellbutrin (all of those I had problems with). My new doctor just started me on Effexor XR 4 days ago. I am still only taking the 35 then I up the dosage in 2 days.
He told me to take my meds in the morning and walk 30 min a day to help,It help me sleep (since I suffer from insomnia)so I take it at night..
I feel great but I now have racing, obsessive thoughts while I am trying to sleep. Morphing coversations in my head that I never have had before. I also take Ativan to calm my anxiety if needed and Resterol to put me to sleep. Effexor seems to help my anxiety and depression so I was wondering if anyone has had the problems of going to bed with crazy awake dreams, but I don't have nightmares. Go figure..
I hope it passes since I feel good overall.
Any anwers would be great!
