> This is my third day on Effexor XR 37.5. I have really mixed feelings. I have "not really here" parts of my day. I have been taking my pill at 9 pm. I sleep through till about 6am. Feel ok in am but after 1pm I cannot keep a train of thought or really relate to my surroundings. Like I'm observing my surroundings not in them
> Will this pass?
> Also in the afternoons all food tastes bitter and unedible. I also feel shakey and sweaty.
> If anyone has any input please help!!!!!!I'll loose my job if this doesn't passI've had similar effects when I started but they will all pass. Now I'm no 225 and I have no nasty side effects unless I forget to take it.
Maybe you can try and change the time that you take your meds ... I take mine when I wake up in the morning ... this way I'm ok for the whole day ... I'm suggesting that since you seem to be having problems in the afternoon.
Good luck and don't give up ... you have to give the medicine time to take effect.
