Please do talk with your Dr. / nurse about the Effexor. I am on it too and I can tell you that th 75 mg is just the starting dose - it needs to go up to at least 150 mg. Also, anti-depressants don't work right away. It can take 3-4 weeks to feel significantly better. I really believe you are on the right track.
And YES to bike who sagely reminds us that it doesn't matter how long it takes, we do it ONE DAY AT A TIME!
