Anyone out there that can give me some positive info please?
Started 37.5 venaflaxine 6 days ago which has been added to the 30mg
Mirtazapine been taking since October.
Feeling pretty grim at the moment - very nauseous and shaky. Some
helpful info would be gratefully received.

I am taking 225mg at the moment and have been for just over a year. It's made a real difference to my mood and I didn't suffer any side effects. I started taking it after I couldn't tolerate SSRIs.

If the Venlafaxine doesn't work or the side effects are too much, hopefully your Dr will be able to find someone that does work for you.

Anyone out there who can give me some moral support.
Just about to start week 3 of Venlafaxine 75mg and still feeling pretty grim and anxious. Feeling very shaky. So scared these aren’t going to work for me and I’m running out of options.
Any positive stories please and how long do these side effects last?
