Effexor extended side effects

Posted by Maringuy on July 1, 2005, at 18:16:59

I've been taking Effexor for about 2 years (150mg/day). Just recently I have begun to feel very spacey, dizzy, and almost disoriented or detached at times--with poor concentration etc. I am pretty good about taking the prescribed dosage--only occassionally forgetting. These symptons are very disturbing to me, and it finally occurred to me it could have something to do with Effexor (I had almost forgotten that I take it). Is it possible for side effects to begin to occur well into treatment? Most of these sound like side effects of new administration or withdrawl from medication. I would really appreciate any thoughts as I've been very depressed and anxious about this lately.

I feel the same way and I have been on Effex 150xr for almost three years, I have blurry vision alot and low energy, I almost just want to sit and watch T.V. or go online alot, almost way to much. Do you get blurry vision?
