Thanks both.
M4you: I totally agree. Today Ii had enough sleep and feel well.
Kalie1979: I am half way down with effexor. I do it very very slowly so i have no withdrawal symptoms. But it is not excluded that it could be because of effexor especially since I was on AD for 10 years and now quitting.
Are you off of the efexor yet? That happen to me a couple of weeks ago. Every morning I got up i exploded!!! I busted things, threw things, just not being myself. At the time i was taking 20mgs of lexpro so i changed it to 10mgs. But i was not taking it like i should either. So it may be the effexor level it not right in your bloodstream.
Hello there,
I think you already know the answer. Sleep deprivation is known to have a strong impact on your personality. Irritability and anger are the most reported effect after fatigue of course.
Stress an anxiety is also known to cause anger and irritability. Effexor withdrawal is can also have a huge impact.
Please note that i'm not a doctor and you should talk about this to your doctor since maybe he will increase your dose a little bit and delay the withdrawal or take another strategy.
Best regards,
