So I've just changed my meds...

Anyone (who has not been diagnosed with anxiety!) took effexor xr and got really bad anxiety on it? I am trembling most of the time, my teeth are clenching most of the time and it's to the point it's super sore now and I can't eat anything without feeling pain. I just feel at edge most of the time.

My exams are around the corner and because of this med change I can't concentrate on studying AT ALL. I also feel lethargic but when I am on the bed I can't sleep at all; I just toss and turn on the bed.

With what little experience I had with antidepressants I knew this isn't good so I'm meeting my pdoc next week.

Just wanna hear thoughts of anyone who faced this with Effexor XR. The last time I had this kind of medication-induced anxiety is on Luvox... but this is by far worse than Luvox.

(I feel like crying because of this med T_T)
