Hello Zinya. I am currently on 150 mg, for about a week now. I was on 75mg it was doing fair, so my pdoc said that 150mg would work better for me. I have been told by others that the side effects should wear off in a few weeks, seems like a long time.
I have also had my share of "computer problems" as you have. I admit that I am a typical "computer geek". I can spend hours working on and troubleshooting computers, although sometimes I too have to get up and walk away from it, yet I don't have much patience with people. However, the Effexor XR is helping me in that respect. It keeps my mood stable and under control. Some of my fatigue is my fault also because I tend to stay up too late, like going to bed at 12 midnight and getting up at 4:30am and going to work, not good. As far as the lethargy goes, if I stay busy and keep my mind active, I can work through it. But if I stop and sit too long, sometimes I crash and burn, know what I mean. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. :)
Hang in there, Zinya.
