So I’m taking Effexor 225 and have been for over a year now. I also take 5 mg hydroxyzine as needed for anxiety and 6 mg melatonin for sleep. Currently I’m having this weird thing where it’s like hard to be awake like my body is really drowsy and almost weak feeling just like out of it I guess. I don’t know if this is a sign I need to eventually lower my Effexor or if it’s one of the other medications. I was going to take out the hydroxyzine and melatonin for a couple days to just see if the Effexor is the issue or not but curious if anyone else had experience and wanted to share how they knew it was time to finally lower their Effexor dose or if it’s something else. Thanks!
