You must take this med. exactly as the doctor tells you to. my depression was severe and this med really saved my life. like all anti-depressants you are never really happy but you really are not sad. its kind of like you just exsist. But exsisting was alot better than the pain from depression. Now when you quit taking this you need to slowly come off, it is horrible cold turkey. If you skip a day you will know and all you want to do is to take one and you will feel better. But the reason getting off for me was i was tired of not really caring.
works well with cymbalta for my depression and axenity
works great for me.Don't try to get off of it by yourself.It will make you crazier than a bed bug.
works good for me
works for depression . especially with supplemental vitamin d in winter months
worked well for a long time but then stopped working. interfered with sex drive as well which was very upsetting. made me manicky sometimes and I sweat a lot. stopped taking the drug under a doctor's supervision (tapers and all that) and experienced severe withdrawal symptoms that were debilitating. I am currently taking Cymbalta which seems to work a bit better but still I'm not satisfied. Oh well people I guess we can't expect a pill to make ALL our problems go away, we have to put in the work as well! good luck to you all.
Worked very well to relieve my depression. I noticed a change in mood the day after I started it. I have a few side effects, including a diminished appetite, and for the first week I was wired and shaky and woke up a lot during the night, but those went away after my body adjusted to the drug. The trade-off was definitely worth it.
Worked shortly after I took it. Felt depressive symptoms lighten up. Did not take depression totally away. Still have depression but not as bad. Life circumstances have also caused depression while on Effexor.
WORKED MUCH BETTER THAN PROZAC OR WELLBUTRIN FOR ME, AND WORKED ALMOST FROM THE FIRST DOSE.
worked in a week! cleaning and running around without need for sleep! only side effect was bad dreams (ok!)
Worked great for depression, OCD and mood swings. Had to get off because of vivid dreams, kicking, talking/yelling in my sleep. My husband had given up trying to sleep with me. Very hard to get off because of withdraw effects(brain zaps nausea etc)
withdrawal symptoms are extremely uncomfortable if medicine runs out; very expensive...
