I take a really low dose of Effexor. It was helping and I didn’t want to go higher. My trileptal has been consistent and if I try to raise the dose I’m clearly unable to function. Crashing into walls if I try to walk. My p-doc told me that is the clue that I shouldn’t take more. My concern is with the Effexor. I feel like I might need to raise the dose, but I wonder if it is telling the body to stop making stuff such as serotonin because the medicine will do it for me. Is this how it works? I’ve had a situation recently where my body stopped making t4 because my armour thyroid meds has convinced my body that it is providing enough t3 (so why make the t4 that creates the t3)
Do any of you know how this works? Am I going to be stuck on meds forever?
