Effexor XR has a longer half life, but the drug itself is the same. I've taken it for about a year and a half, and while I can hardly wait to stop taking it, it's not because of side effects.
For me, it works wonders. I was terrified, too, when I started it, but now I can't say enough about it. I've never had an AD which was so effective and didn't numb me. Good luck, and I hope that it works for you, too. I do hope you feel better soon, and don't worry too much about side effects. The only ones I've had went away within the first week, so it can be good too.
Good luck.
