Hi everyone,

Just looking some advise. I am now on day 14 of Venalafaxine 37.5mg XR. And I have been feeling quite good the last 5 days really feel it working, racing thoughts stopped, anxiety stopped., but last night/today I feel it all starting to come back. Is this normal? has anyone experienced this before, my therapist said this can happen, and to wait to week 6 and she wouldnt be upping my dosage yet.

hi Nicole, i can’t comment personally on taking this medication but i can only think this - if you’re medication isn’t working then either you don’t have the correct medication or you haven’t got to the root cause of your depression. i hope one of the above is the case and that you get the right support.

your question is what you need to discuss with your doctor.
