I THINK NOT, I THINK ITS THE MEDICINE THAT WAS IN ME FOR 3 IN ZOLOFT TRAZADONE REMERON ATIVAN EFFEXOR AND XANAX. WHAT DO U THINK IT MAY BE DOC

[Roger Gould, M.D.]

I don't think its the medicine in you since all of it has been metabolized and gone from your body a long time ago. I think you are prone to anxiety, and the next doctor you see should be a psychotherapist who treats you with counseling and insight rather than medication.

I am not a doctor but I did take effexor for 4 months.  I still get dizzy once in a while.  That is a evil drug stay away from it.  Too many side effects.
