I haven't had Effexor for 3 days now (I know from experience that day 4 is the worst so I might take 1/2 a 37.5mg amount). I have been having the most sexually intense dreams and experiencing a slight return of my sex drive. This since having zero zilch sex drive since May of 2003 when I began Effexor. I'm afraid to get my hopes up after being numb for so long, but if those dreams continue, my husband's going to be a very happy man.
Brain shivers are less intense. I also think I'm more careful about moving my head left or right while walking. Funny how adapting to Effexor's side effects may leave long-term changes in behavior.
Wanted to post a positive note about life after Effexor. It does get better. :)
