i was prescribed effexor-xr more than 2 weeks ago by my doctor without being evaluated for what might be my problem. i was on the lowest dose (37.5) and started the 75 mg dose yesterday. i really don't like medication to begin with and i don't like what this is doing to me. i have no appetite, i can't sleep, when i'm awake i feel listless, when i try to sleep, i can't stay still, i feel more depressed than ever, i can't do anything! he said that the symptoms are normal and should go away after a week or two, but they just seem to be getting worse.
i know that you can't just discontinue anti-depressants and that you have to taper off for awhile. but i was wondering that since i've only been on it for 2 weeks and on the lowest dose, would it be okay to just throw this stuff down the toilet?! i can't take it anymore!
