Tom, I am sorry for what you are going thru. I went thru a divorce too, but nothing like your situation. I have battled depression and anxiety for years and years. I was taking effexor xr and xanax xr- the xanax greatly helped my anxiety, but even on effxr I spiralled into major depression again after about 3 months- I just found out I may be Bipolar 2, so what I needed was something else to boost the effexor. I am taking lamitical now too. I seem to be coming out of the depression finally. So, give the effexor a try and if it doesnt work. Have your doc add something to it....
Good Luck,
Ann
