Hi feary,
You said you have just started taking effexor.. Keep in mind that it takes six to eight weeks before it starts working.. Like you I have been on just about everything.. My pdoc put me back on effexor because it worked the best.. I am now on a high regiment of the drug..Something you might want to talk to him about is putting you on either geodon or abilify for the irrational thoughts.. Just a thought and wanted to eductae you on the affects of effexor.. Take Care!!!
