> > I have been taking effexor for almost a week now. I have took paxil and celexa and after two years they both quit working . I really hope this helps. I have suffered with depression since childhood and only the last five years have I been diagnosed with a chemical inbalance and anxiety. I would appreciate any encouragement on effexor. Thank you,

> Terry, I noticed more energy and a change in mood after a couple of weeks on Effexor-XR. It didn't really help with depression or OCD until after about a month, and the main benefits kicked in after about two months. Hang in there! You said you're taking it for anxiety. It makes me MORE anxious, but I can live with that I think. Hope it works for you!Cindy , Thank you so much for your encouragement. It means alot. I start my 75mg on Thursday morning. Thanks again , Terry
