Hmm. I've never heard of a therapeutic dose with Effexor. I don't know if there are any studies on blood level & response.

I too have a hard time with most SSRIs. I've come off them, and am generally doing better.

I am prescribed Effexor, but generally don't take it.

I agree that antidepressants and mood stabilizers don't always mesh well.

An NRI might go better with lamictal. Have you tried straterra or any of the TCAs?
