I have been on a number of anti-depressants over the last several years. It seems none of them make me feel better only worse. The weight gain, lethargy, neurological symptoms are the same with all of them. I have recently been on Effexor XR. Dosage began at 75mg and within several months was increased to 300mg. I have been sweating profusely for months, recently have been looking very ill. I have black circles under my eyes, I havent slept well for months.
I decided to lower the dose myself so I cut it in half, and most recently my doctor perscribed me 10mg prozac to be taken every day and the effexor everyother day for the next two weeks. Today I am having horrible dizzy spells, vibratory sensation in all limbs and mental confusion. Its scaring the hell out of me...At what point should I go to the hospital if these syptoms continue.
