Effexor

Hi all! Haven’t been here in a while!!! I hope everyone is doing well! I’m actually doing pretty good with the whole depersonalization/derealization nightmare. And that’s Thanks to Effexor and Xanax. Anyways, I have a quick question..... I can’t remember for the life of me if I took my Effexor this morning. I got distracted and I don’t remember if I made it to the cabinet. Does anyone know what happens when you miss a dose of Effexor???

Be careful with this drug. It has very bad withdrawal symptoms, my brother got bad symptoms after 1 missed pill. Maybe you should contact your doctor

I don’t want to scare you but it wasn’t good. He doesn’t take it anymore, it stopped working after a year
