I was on effexor for about 7 weeks and was having terrible side effects. I wouldn't be able to sleep, dizzness, and a lot of other things. My Dr switched my medication over the weekend from the Effexor which I was taking 75mg. a day to Prozac weekly that is 90mg. that I take once a week. My moods have stablized but, the feeling of depression and sucide have returned. It's like I can't get my self to get to class, I just don't have any energy like I did with the effexor. I don't know if adding medications or going back to the effexor would make any of this any better. I had so many problems with the effexor. I now have seizures because of the effexor. I really don't want to start taking that medicine again because of the side affects. Any thoughts???
