i also just tried effexor for a few months and my psychiatrist just kept raising my dosage. my depression was no better and i had side effects like nausea and headaches everyday. i switched back to zoloft and it works better for me.

I’ve still been struggling with depression too. I’ve been on Effexor for almost three months. I’m also in a mood stabilizer and an antipsychotic, but the depression itself has not lifted yet.

Awww, im sorry. I personally found luck with Effexor, but I also found weight gain. It did work fairly fast for me personally, but again I felt really lucky. I hope you get some relief soon 💕

I’m struggling with the same medication, my depression and anxiety seems to be worse

Worsening mental and physical symptoms since starting about 6 months ago. I’m only still on it because I have no idea if it’s due to the Effexor or not and just really want something to help before i decide to stop trying meds again. But getting to that point since I’m barely functioning now.

I am on Prozac, a few months after I started taking it, I was feeling a little too depressed. I found out about the drug Bupropion (Wellbutrin) It just to the edge off my Prozac, so I didn’t feel so awful anymore.
