If you decide to revisit venlafaxine (Effexor; Efexor), you must explore dosages higher than 150mg. I would suggest going to at least 300mg. I plan on combining venlafaxine 300mg with nortriptyline (Pamelor) 150mg. Is nortriptyline available in the UK? You could even try using nortriptyline with paroxetine (Paxil; Seroxat). I may have missed it, but have you tried bupropion (Wellbutrin; Zyban)? It often works well in combination with a serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI; SNRI). A good friend of mine is very much improved now that she is taking a combination of escitalopram (Lexapro; Cipralex) and bupropion.
