I split a 37.5 in half. Took it at noon with a bagel and cappucino (my addiction) I feel good not really too dizzy no head ache as of yet. I do feel funny tho. how do I explain this kinda bouncy my head is busy does this make any sense. I have a slight ringing in my ears. I don't feel really dizzy like I did on Tuesday when I took a whole dose. Oh ya i'm having a hard time collecting my thoughts and typing is quite a challenge too :confused: . I will write more later as the day goes on and let ya know how I'm doing.

Sounds manageable. Whatever, there will be some feeling funny at first.... then in a few days you feel OK & when you feel like it's not doing anything, the dose can go up but you'll need to adjust again for another week or so.

If the bouncy feeling could be imagined as mildly appealing, that's good. Sounds like something unfamiliar to you and not really unleasant, sort of energetic.

Hey Paul get out of my HEAD!!! :D OMG I feel wonderful now! Not gittery, Things are clear, its not fuzzy to look at the screen anymore. I wasn't going to take any meds I was kinda freaked out by the discontinuation but I had a really bad morning and decided that I don't want to feel like that anymore! So I decided to take it. I called the Pharmacist first to make sure it was cool to split the dose. I just poured it in the back of my throat and swallowed. It worked out fine. BTW my legs were kinda sleepy feeling maybe almost numb but that went away, did you get that?

Good.

I did get odd sensations in my body. Takes your body a while to adjust and effects all kinds of things besides just your brain.

Hey Paul,
I just wanted to say thank you. You have been my ROCK and that is what I need right now. Now if you could tell me how to make more money I would be all set :D . Joking aside "THANK YOU" I will let you know how i'm feeling and how the meds are going.

Hugs
Robin

Teach me how to be patient, focused, reliable, supportively responsive, responsible and satisfied in a work setting and I'll teach you how to make more money.

he he

Ya I'm pretty sure you are on your own with that one. I too need to learn those things!!!! But I never got me headache on the lower dose and slept like a baby last night!!!! WOOHOO

OK so whats up with the sweating? I feel like Im 500 pounds in the desert. I can see why one of the side effects is dry mouth cuz i'm sweating all of the water out of me. I guess I won't get bloated that way!!! :)

Yep, it makes you sweat and I don't think that ever completely goes away. Better than being depressed I guess. I soaked the sheets at night while I was getting used to it & things still get pretty damp 3 weeks off. I never did that before.

thank God someone else is sweating too. Now you can say you know what menopause feels like. I have been through menopause and now I was prescribed Effexor and I feel like I am going through it all over again. I wanted to check to see if anyone else experienced it before I thought my hormones were to blame. My husband was yelling at me all week-end over the air conditioner being on all week-end. I am burning up!!! I live in the south anyway but this is not helping. I wonder if Welbutrin makes you sweat too.

Hey Dixie, Wellbutrin won't make you sweat but it's a much milder antidepressant.
