Seamsew, We encourage you to call your doctor or therapist. Either should be able to give you a better idea of whether or not these side effects are common or whether you dose must be adjusted. Hoping you feel better soon. Danielle ___________________ The PC Support Team

Hey guys. So this is what is going on. I hope someone can give me some insight. Well I was on Effexor for two years and took myself the drug because I was feeling better. I had little to no anxiety and was really worried that the longer I was on it the worse the withdrawals would be. I forgot to take a pill one time and it was horrible.Plus I was really upset at my psychiatrist. I had lost trust in him because he was so unprofessional. He would answer his phone all the time when I was meeting with him. He would be on the phone all the time! So I finally go off of it and was so happy. I was free! Until two months later I had a panic attack. I should have seen this coming. I got a new doctor who I like who put me back on Effexor this past week. I was so happy cause I was going to get better again. I have been on it for two days now and have had horrible side effects. I don't want to eat. I feel jittery and hyper but at the same time have no energy. I am drained. My heart feels like its beating so fast. like palpitations i guess. My body is always warm. sometimes my hands get shaky which my doctor said could happen but would go away. I get irritated and nervous. It is like I am doped up or something. The first day I took it in the morning so I switched to night because that's when I took it the first time. But that didn't really help me. I really want to stick with it and get better cause It worked last time. But This didn't happen before. I am so confused. I don't want to have to go and try something new It is so scary. I just want to know if these side effects will go away. my plan is to wait a few more days and see If i feel better and if now call my doctor and see what she says. I just want to know if anyone has been through this or has words of wisdom. I am having a really hard time. also some of my family is coming to visit and I just don't feel like I have the energy. anyways thanks guys Vanessa
