Thank you guys for all your responses, glad to know I'm not the only one out there experiencing this! To be honest, I don't really feel like the Effexor is doing anything for me, I haven't noticed any difference in my tummy or my anxiety. Also, I am by no means depressed, I just have major anxiety issues (GAD).
Does anyone know why doctors seem so reluctant to just prescribe therapy with anti-anxiety agents? You know like valium 3 times a day? I don't understand why they always push the anti-ds? I've taken ativan on and off for awhile and it helps me way more than the anti-ds do, but they won't treat me that way...and it's so frustrating because the anti-ds are so expensive and I can barely afford them, and they don't even seem to be working!
GRRR, sorry just needed to vent about that!
