Sorry! I didn’t see this. Please tell your doctor. Mine put me on lexapro and my anxiety got worse! That’s where the Seroquel comes in. I take a small dose of that at night as a mood stabilizer and then Zoloft as a mood lifter. Small doses. With your doctors approval, perhaps lower your Effexor dose? Please let the doc know. You should have to suffer with anxiety. It’s the worst! Perhaps it’s not right for you or perhaps you need to ween more slowly on. I was on a pediatric dose that worked for me! Everyone is different so don’t be shy about calling your doctor about your anxiety.

I tried Seroquel. It did nothing for me. I was on Zoloft for 6 weeks, and it made me feel worse. The Dr. said that was enough time to know if it would work. He put me on Effexor because I’m also on Mirtazapine. He says it’s “California rocket fuel.” Google it. I hope it works. I guess I’m just sensitive to meds.
