Hello all,
I have been taking the Effexor XR for 26 days now...I am on 75mg of Efferor XR and 200mg of WellbutrinSR per day.....I take the Effexor and one Wellbutrin in the AM and then the final dose of Wellbutrin at night....I did okey the first couple of weeks on the Effexor except for the general side effects of getting used to a new med.....Now my problem is I feel like I'm not getting enough of it now....The Effexor that is...it's like I have become amune(sp) to the 75mg already and need more, like I want more gotta have more....I have a doctors appointment on Thursday and plan to talk to him about it.....I am very aggitated and moody now and I wasn't when I first started taking it.....Has anyonelse had these affects and did something to help these feelings?.....I don't want him to change me from the Effexor because I really like the way it makes me feel overall...Just wish the aggitation and mood swings would go away....I want so much to be the same smiling, laughing, funny kid I was 20 years ago.....I know, I know....I'm asking to much....LOL...I just wish to feel good about myself again.Thanks to everyone for their replies and support...Oh BTW could someone give me a crash coarse in what some of the abbreviations are on this site....Oh and also I take ambien for sleep but have been out of it for a week and I have some promethazine I take if I really can't sleep until I get to the doc to get ambien refilled......Sleeping is almost impossible if I don't take something for it.....the promethazine also helps with nausea but I wonder if it could be the culprit of my mood swings?....Because it causes me to be real tired upon rising and the ambien makes me feel well balanced rest...Input please.
Have a great day!!!
