I've been trying to get off my medication for a while now and I think after only being on 75mg of Effexor I need to go back up to 150mg. I kinda wished I would be med free but I'm wasting my days sleeping in. I'm OBSESSED with sleeping and dreaming that I stay in bed way past normal. like 12 hours or so.

I don't know if I'm depressed or if sleeping so long is making me depressed or if I'm depressed and sleeping too long is making it worse but I just can't keep going on like this. I've also been eating a ton and gained 8 lbs in a short time. >.> It's been a month or so and I don't feel any better so I went back up on my dose 2 days ago and I feel better. Whether that's a placebo affect or not I don't really care anymore as long as it works.

I'm a little disappointed though. I thought maybe I could do it on my own you know, but it looks like I can't.
