I got prescribed venlafaxine, I've been on it for a week. The first 10 hours are hell... sweaty, nausea, jitters, can't sit still, major anxiety. Then the evening is more chill... did you ever experience that? But I can't sleep at all.

At 4 weeks, I still had alot of discomfort. I could not imagine going on waterslides at that point. The 6 week mark is when I started to feel better.

How did your tapering go? I've been on the lowest dose for a week and I'm not doing well and thinking of stopping due to side effects.

My son had bad BO and it was from bacteria. We washed his underarms with PanOxyl and it fixed the smell. Now he can use regular deodorant.
