my memory and cognition is actually better on abilify(aripiprazole)(new antipsych)...klonopin worked a little for my anxiety but made me sooo tired and lethargic....i didnt like neurontin either.. i felt drunk and stupid on it...hows effexor working for you? how long have you been on it? any weight gain?.. i took it for about 3 mos... 2 yrs ago... cured mt depression in about 3 days but made me so pannicky and paranoid/shakey i couldnt sit still on it... but, thats me... i hate all ssri's and meds similar to them... do you mind me asking your diagnosis?...

I'm surprised from what I read on antipsychotics you didn't note any cognitive side effect.... I'm 19 and on Effexor 300, about to go off in a few days (right after finals, don't feel like risking it)
