I am on my third week of effexor xr and my pdoc just increased my dosage to 150 mg (took first dose this morning). I was at 37.5 for one week and 75 mg the next and experienced considerable anxiety and depression (am also slowly tapering off zoloft). My concern is that he is increasing too rapidly and not allowing enough time at each dose. What is a "normal" timeframe to give each dosage before deciding to increase? In the back of my mind, I can't help to think that the higher I go, the worse the withdrawals will be when it is time to come off. The posts really scare me.
