I have noticed that other people here are taking Effexor for anxiety and symptom relief. I had a question about side-effects. I've been taking 75MG of Effexor for a couple months now in the morning, and by 8pm I am totally wiped out -I mean really tired! To the point of barely being able to stay awake. The other side effect is dampened orgasms -the pleasure is decreased tremendously.
Do these side-effects last permanently, or do they subside in time? Has anyone else had these issues?
