Hi, Simcha!
I am not enduring much suffering. Really! In fact, I am fine. I have been on holidays for two months and will be returning to work soon. I am being treated for generalized anxiety and it seems that my case is a walk in the park compared to many others'. Since I have been on holidays, I have been taking my meds (Effexor XR) only once every two days (I think that is called "cheating"!) and I am fine, but will go back to my regular dosage once I am back at work since my problem is largely work-related. Effexor XR has really been good for me as far as treating my anxiety. Paxil just did not work for me. I am hoping to find something else as effective but with fewer side effects. Anyone else have any answers???? (mainly weight gain, ongoing fatigue). Thank you so much for your reassurance and concern.
Sincerely,
EmmaL
