My name is Judith Haven and i would like to show you my personal experience with Effexor.
I am 37 years old. Have been on Effexor for at least 1 years now. As soon as I was on the beginning dose I could feel releave from my anxiety. My family life is so much better. My kids notice it. They applaud my for taking the side affects for a better live with them. No explosive episode any more.
I have experienced some of these side effects-
Nightsweats, I have twitches if I forget a dose.
I hope this information will be useful to others,
Judith Haven
