Two weeks ago my doctor and I decided to change my meds as I was experiencing high anxiety levels. He has me on 37.5 mg of effexor, 1 mg of Xanax XR and Zoloft. Starting Friday the Effexor will be taken every other day. I will also taper off with the Xanax XR.
Thankfully I haven't experienced some of the worst withdrawal symptoms from the decreased Effexor. I've had some slight "brain zaps" which feel more like vertigo. My most difficult problem is still heart palpitations. Tomorrow I see my dr. for a follow-up.
I'm feeling much better these days. I'm sleeping better at night, except my sleeping times are now from midnight - 9 am instead of 10 - 6 am.
My biggest news is I filled out job applications last week for part time retail positions. Tomorrow I have an interview at Joann Fabrics. A great place for a quilter and fabric artist to work.
