The venlafaxine doesn't seem to agree with you. In most cases, if you get a bad reaction from a drug early on, chances are it's not going to work well. They're have been studies on this. On the other hand, venlafaxine is a bit different from most of the other SSRI's in that it tends to work better at higher dosages. I'd either quit or ramp up the dose to 225 mg or so, which is around the dose where the norepinephrine action starts to kick in or else just get off it. Your psychiatrist can't force you to take it.
