I've been on Effexor for quite a while now. I take it in the AM because I think it was keeping me awake. It has seemed to really help me. I don't know what dose I'm on though-- I think may be the 75 right now. It was working for me so I didn't need to go up to the 150 although I'm wondering if I should think about that now. I've started getting some of my panic symptoms back.

I've not had any problems with it except for one thing. Don't forget to take it. if I forget to take it I get these "electric shock" things throughout my body. Somewhere there is a thread on it. I'll try to find it.

Good luck!
