My insurance carrier recently switched my prescription coverage from the Brand Name of
Effexor XR to the newly available
Generic. I have noticed that my depression is getting worse, my anxiety is off the scale and I am falling back into very bad self-harming, self-destructive behavior. At the same time that this was switched, I was also taken off of Celexa (10mg daily) which was being used as an add-on treatment for the Effexor. We stopped the Celexa due to severe bruising and nose bleeds.
