> I have a problem with lack of motivation and difficulty getting up in the morning. This happen after two weeks of taking any SSRI including Effexor. This is called a late onset side effect.

I'm currently taking Zoloft 200mg. I've been on it for a few months now. I have not seen any reduction of motivation in the same way I experienced on Lexapro. Unfortunately, it's not doing much for depression.
