I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

I take Effexor XR and this medicine has
done me a world of good. Before I
started this med, I had terrible inner

finally punched a cynderblock wall.
This medicine has controlled all of

hope it helps you too

It has helped my anxiety quite a bit. We are hoping this increased dosage will completely rid me of my anxiety. I am also in DBT once a week.
The side effects wore off after about 3 to 4 weeks. You have to stick it out.
