I was started on Effxor XR 35 mg last week. I took the 7 days worth and I have never had a headache like I have had with this medicine. I have had severe headaches, sleep disturbances, increased sweating, night sweats, suicidal thoughts, compulsive behavior. The doctor's office had me repeat the 35 mg again this week and the headaches are still there (very bad) the compulsive behavior has subsided, be the other effects are still there. I was on Paxil 30 mg a day then switched to the Effxor. At first I thought the headaches were due to having the paxil and the effxor in my system at the same time. I now think it is the Effxor and it wouldn't matter if the paxil was in my system or not.

by aileen3, 0 replies, updated about 13 hours ago.Because I sleep so much, my back and ribs get so sore. Also, I feel like my muscles are weakening. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Does that make sense? I have had this disorder from the time I turned about 25. I am now 35. I have been to several Physicians and 90% think it's depression. However, the reason I'm depressed is because I'm so freaking tired. It takes everything I have to cook supper and wash dishes. I just wish there was a magic pill out there to diminish the effects of t...

severe headaches,dry iychy skin, nausia, vomiting, sand paper rubbing together sound in my head, very weak, slow speech, achey muscles, in a fog, disconnected, unable to make decisions, terrifying dreams I am afraid to go to sleep as my nightmares never stop, stomach pain and cramps especially after eating, major gas, blurred vision, unorganised thought patterns, very difficult to think, cry uncontrolably,pain all over. This is what I feel like after one day of missing my regular 225mgs dose of Effexor. My dr. is now doing a brain MRI to find out what has been causing severe headaches for the past 8 weeks. She also said I have Cronic Fatigue Syndrom.She is eliminating other possible causes before blaming Effexor, which I have been taking for 8 years. I am at panic state and find it difficult to function.I have been hospitalize with these symptoms only to be told I had some type of virus. One week ago I was arrested and put behind bars for shop lifting. This is freaking me out as I don't recall the actual crime, I do recall wandering aimlessly in the store for two hours looking at everything I could look at. I bought some items but lost the dog collar. It was in my purse!! Off to jail for 5 days without Effexor. I wanterd them to take me to a nut house because I could not focus and I got sooo sick. Now I have to go to court and explain my Not Guilty Plee. I am distraught, frightened, and facing more possible jail time!! I am contimplating ending my life.I have never been in trouble with the law and am 52 years old.
