@notaround- Hello. If you are still feeling like this after a couple of weeks I would definitely call your doctor. I also think that it can be dangerous especially living alone.

I slept over 16 hours yesterday so still not any better. But I'm still alive so that's something I guess. Can't say I'm terribly happy.
The sleepiness isn't immediately dangerous, but putting me in danger of losing my job.
Hopefully once I'm finally off venlafaxine I can get on something else that works and doesn't give me a seizure if I miss a dose.
As for asking my doctor, My former doctor simply didn't give a damn. I got an appointment with a new one who was really nice and might have actually cared. But they left for another state right after my first visit. So don't have a doctor currently. I have almost zero options for doctors so for now I'm on my own.
