Hi, you are probably just very med sensitive to serontonin reuptake inhibitors. You could tolerate Remeron at a standard dose (and I took Remeron at 15mg or 30mg for months in the past or doxepin at 75mg/day). But, there is NO way I can tolerate a standard dose of SSRi or Effexor/Cymbalta. It's just the mechanism and my peculiar biology. But, they do help a lot with anxiety, so I take tiny doses. When I use EffexorXR for anxiety I just dump all the pellets out on a saucer and pick out a dozen and wash them down with a glass of water. That's about all I can stand because it makes me too nauseated, etc. Maybe you should quarter your 37.5mg tabs and take just a quarter once a day for a week or two to see if it helps?
