When I first started taking Effexor XR three years ago, I was amazed at how quickly I felt better. Within a week's time, I was back to feeling like myself again. BUT, having said that, don't stay on Effexor long and for heaven's sake, don't let your dr keep adjusting your dose up. It's great for a while, but eventually you have to come off it and then hell arrives at your doorstep. Tread carefully. It's supposedly not addictive or habit forming, but DO NOT miss a dose. If you do, you will understand why.
