@farmboy I think it is possible to feel worse before you feel better. It will take a while for your body to realize the effects of returning to the effexor. Try to think of it as the highs and lows of a roller coaster. You will have the exciting high times, I promise! It's a trip, and all trips end, it's not eternity even though it may feel like it. None of us would be here with you if this was impossible. Hang in there!
