I can't believe she didn't tell me this as a side effect. Horrible. Just horrible.

I'm sorry to hear that Effexor isn't working for you. I guess everyone has different reactions, they help some but for others they are a nightmare or just simply don't work.
I had a pretty good experience with Citalopram but I did find that less was more. On 30mg I felt fuzzy & was still getting nausea 3 weeks after the dosage increase so I decreased down to 20mg & it worked a treat for me.
Psychiatric medications are finicky for sure.
