> Yes I do want to feel better. I just wanted some opinions on how much different 300mg would be from 225. Did you just go right up to 300 or did you play with your dose?? How long have you been on Effexor? I just want the same results I first experienced at 225mg, and I dont want them to go away.

> DebbieI have been on Effexor since 1995. I dont have the horrabile side effects many have with Effexor
except the sweating. Every dose increase causes me to sweat for a few days, so for me I just go right to the new dose, and get it over with. I do not reccomend this to others, though. I was stable at a lower dose for the first years, then found I needed 300 mgs to pull me out of a depression. My doc and I played around with going from 150 to 300 and found the depression returned
if I took less then 300 mgs.james
