I too am feeling a lot of the effects as you guys are. The bruisings and headaches. I've never realized this before. This is the second anti-depressant I've been on. I was first put on Zoloft. And I stopped taking it. But for those months I stopped it was a living nightmare. I was dizzy and bolts of pains running through my head. But it's worse now then it ever has been now that I am on Effexor. Maybe it's the dosage--I don't really know. I've been trying to get off of them, but fear my body won't let me. Like it'll call me back to the pills. I've been taking them every other day...but it's not good. I feel fine for the first day of not taking them but I have to awaken way early in the morning to take it so I won't feel dizzy all day. But it still makes me feel like I havn't taken it.
