Q: Need Help! Effexor Causing Me Problems I Think

I've been on 150mg effexor xr for the last 4 months for gad. I am not sleeping well on this stuff at all and i'm getting real bad headaches. I don't remember it effecting me this way initially and i'm going to stop it for a while-i need a good night sleep. Is anyone else having major side effects while on effexor? And has anyone had any problems while coming off effexor? I just can't take it anymore so please help

Effexor Causing Side Effects

I disagree, antidepressants can save lives and make some peoples lives much better. Maybe effexor just isn't the one for you, they're are many other options. Talk to your doctor about your side effects,maybe try another antidepressant.Good luck
