Vyvanse vs. SSRI interaction
I'm also taking
Effexor
XR 150 mg for depression. Is this just in the beginning phase for the body to get used to the stimulant, even on the very low dose or the interaction between the
effexor
which is a ssri and the stimulant causes this uncomfortable side effect.

Is Neuropsychological testing in an ADHD Evaluation Important?
(Celexa 10mg and
Effexor
37.5mg) . I also am on hormone replacement therapy ( for help with brain fog, insomnia and depression). I recently went through an evaluation with a neuropsychologist which included an interview and neuro psych testing (a few hours long).

Increase dose of Effexor increase anxiety
Hi, my dose of
Effexor
XR was just increased a week and a half ago because of anxiety. My anxiety has increased since the dose was raised.
Effexor
XR from 150mg to 187.5mg. Have others experienced an increase in anxiety after an increase? Did it go away for you? Thanks!

Kind of vent, kind of looking for advice (psychiatrist, trying to get diagnosed)
He did put me on stimulating antidepressants though--welbutrin, which has never done much for me, and venlafaxine (
effexor
).
Effexor
was the first antidepressant to actually help, but quickly started losing the stimulant aspect, and at this point it does nothing in that regard.

New here - questions about Venlafaxine and the tiredness 🥱
First some background - I've been on 75mg of
Effexor
XL (slow release, one tablet in the morning) for a few months now and overall it has felt like something pretty magical from an emotional perspective. The down side is that my energy levels are pretty low.

I’m new
I just increased my dosage of
Effexor
by 37.5mg last week and am experiencing tiredness and loss of appetite. I’m praying the increased dosage will help sooner than later. I still feel ashamed and weak at times yet realize this is an illness.

Hot Flashes/Flushes RX
She Rx Venlafaxine (
Effexor
) 75 MG. Took my 1st one at breakfast today. Did not expect any immediate results, but by this time of day I would already have had 10-12 of them and they seemed to be getting worse, of course, our current weather is not helpful.

It’s been a while
So I got off of it and I’ve been off my
Effexor
75mg for 2months. I told my doctor I was feeling better so I think I should get off of it and she reduced my dose to 25mg for 7 days.

Ruled by anxiety
I'd like to say that I have been taking
Effexor
for years, and have been given Xanax as well, which I never take simply because I want to limit my intake of pharmaceuticals. The
Effexor
has done nothing for me, and it is so very difficult to wean off of it, which I decided to now do.
