Mr Scott
Maybe you could try starting at a very low dose. I started Lexapro at 5 mg per day for about 3 weeks before going to 10 mg. I don't know what the equivalent dose of Effexor would be.
Unfortunately, the "short term" side effects can last for several weeks or more - you have to be patient (but of course, I'm not in your shoes).
Hang in there!
