Thanks, Sarah! It helps to know that other people do feel the same as me. I have taken the Effexor for 2 days now, it makes me feel weird and I still have the same symptoms, confusion, dizziness, and being tired but wide awake at the same time. The funny thing is that even though I'm having some scary symptoms, I'm not panicking at all. Usually these symptoms would throw me into panic right away. When I took it yesterday afternoon, I had to lay down several times, but never actually fell asleep. I was off work on Monday and Tuesday, but I have to go in today at 5pm and DRIVE all night. This is one of our busiest nights of the year and there's no way I could ask off or leave early. I'm afraid if I take the med this afternoon that I won't be able to drive. I was thinking of waiting to take it after I get home tonight about midnight. This has got my anx up, I hate the pressure.
