Efexor update 2:
Got smashed up a bit at work last Tuesday by an agro dementia patient were I work. The left side of my body looks like I've been in a car wreck

Had the next day off anyway, but had to go back yesterday and my anxiety hit with a vengeance! I felt so wound up all through my shift (the guy who assaulted me is still my patient) that at times I just wanted to get up and run outside for air. As far as work went, it was a good shift with no hassles!
I spoke to my shift manager who knows about my being prescribed Efexor (that's how it's spelt in Australia) and he said he really believes I should at least give it a go for a few months since the dose is so small anyway, so this morning I swallowed my first 37.5mg slow release capsule. I'm currently just as anxious as I sit at home waiting for "something" to happen. Wish me luck!!
Rose.
