Yes, I have (an still am) experiencing uncontrollable crying at 75mg effexor xr. I was on 150mg but the side effects were really bad. I've been on 75mg for about two weeks now and I cry over and over again about the exact thing that has me in this never ending depression.
At times, I can literally feel my mood swings. My doc's told me that 75mg should be effective but with less side effects. It really isn't working though.
I'm thinking of going off effexor. After reading tons of these posts, the things it does can be just downright scary.
