Posting to hopefully get some insight from others.
I’m taking 75mg Effexor hcl xr for anxiety at 9pm, I’m only 3 days into taking it and I can’t stop sleeping during the day while simultaneously not being able to sleep at night comfortably or sleep in due to achy limbs (not sure if aches are caused by the medication or a separate issue because I get mildly achy limbs but not to the degree of crying like this morning), I’m extremely nauseous even with taking it with food and I stay nauseous throughout the day, and lastly my anxiety is also a lot worse.
I wasn’t really told about side effects from my doctor but I don’t know if I can stick the side effects through for 2-4 weeks to see the benefits of the medication. Had anyone else on my friends list been on Effexor? No horror stories please, I’m just trying to gauge if I should try to stick it through or if I should stop because I don’t know if I’ll be able to work properly being this tired and anxious 🙃
I called and left a message with my doctors office because all our doctors except urgent care and ER(A&amp;E outside of America) but it’s not worth try going to them and they won’t give advice unless you are admitted, pharmacy’s here are also closed on Sunday and they weren’t too kind to me when I called and asked about the medication yesterday.
