Hiya Java-
Welcome to Psycho-Babble! Glad you found your way here and hope you'll stick around.
I'm currently on Effexor, Take Neurontin, but take Stelazine as needed for panic attacks.
I started out on 75mgs and had headaches and nausea-starting out at the 37.5mg should help with that though.
Other than headaches and nausea in the beginning, which subsided after about 2 weeks, it's been great!
The Neurontin+Effexor combo has worked the best for me. I don't fall into the 'slump', the continuous mood swing that I've always had.. (Borderline Personality, Bipolar NOS, anxiety/panic disorder,,,yada, yada, the list can go on for a week)
Hope that helps,Kiddo
