> As for the drugs, that's an awfully high dose of Effexor XR, isn't it? I thought that it only went up to 275?I was on 225 for a long time, and just went up to 375 a few months ago. Noticed definite improvement with the increase. I don't think people only go up to 275. I think I read in the med info online that up to 375 was tested. some docs probably have people on even higher doses.
I guess when I think about it, I would like to be at a state where all this stress can upset me, but not make me start spiraling downward, thinking and feeling hopelessness and having suicidal thoughts, even if vague and remote. I would like not to get so incredible overwhelmed and withdrawn. Is there a med combo that could do this for me?
