Just started Effexor...having mixed feelings

I'm on day 5 of Effexor and so far it's been good and bad. I've noticed a huge improvement in my mood ...My anxiety is finally starting to get better...I am sleeping so much better (way cool dreams)...and I'm motivated to do absolutely everything for a change.

On the down side...I've been really dizzy and nauseous. Can't wait for that to go away. The worst of it happened last night. I was at a friend's and started feeling kind of dizzy and decided to go home -- by the time I got to the car my head was spinning out of control. I had this really strange feeling like I had just drank a case of beer by myself and could barely put one foot in front of the other. I had no alcohol whatsoever, but I felt like I was really drunk. I was super nervous to drive. Dizzy spells are one thing -- when you feel like you're so out of it that you can't walk or drive -- it's a bit scary. Anyone had any of these crazy drunken feelings?
