If you decide that Effexor is not helping you then you could discuss the option of Mirtazapine (marketed as Remeron among other names) with your psychiatrist.
The pharmacology of Remeron is similar but not identical to that of Effexor so it might meet your needs without the side-effects that you are experiencing with Effexor.

Eh, I changed over from mirtazapine actually. SSRIs and mirtazapine all didn't do the trick, so pdoc switched me to effexor. but this is by far the worst side effects i've ever experienced.
thanks for all the replies guys! i will meet my pdoc soon.... need to hang in there T_T
