i recently changed prescription medicine from Paxil 30 mg to Effexor (not sure of spelling) 37.5 mg.  My dr. advised that it was ok to just make the switch.  Stop paxil one day and start efexor the next.  It has been almost a month now and I have become angry, no tolerance, and depressed all of the time.  Is this normal and will it take more than one month to begin to take effect?<
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Many researches and researchers confirm that medicines alone cannot cure mental disorders.
