If you take around 375mg it is pretty weird. You seem to get extremely happy and your eyes feel like they are the size of footballs. I wouldn't call it fun and its probably quite dangerous. I wouldn't reccomend it.

No rec. value.

In other words -> don't take them, unless you need them to help your depression.

I believe they can potentiate certain hallucinogens. That seems recreational enough to me. I used to be prescribed to them. I couldn't sleep on them though, so I dropped em fast.

They are MAOI and can really dangerous. Don't use them recreationaly, don't go over your regular dose.

You sure they're an MAOI? I would have thought my shrink would have warned me... And I was on dextroamphetamine at the same time. I think that's a no-no with MAOIs due to the risk of a hypertensive crisis or something...

This is from rxlist.com:

Venlafaxine and ODV do not possess monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitory activity.

So I was right about that.

Even out your blood cells? who told you that one? Anti-depressants dont act on blood cells.

I don't see you giving any information at all, useful or not. At least he posted what he thought it was.

They work on the brain, on the neurotransmitters. Effexor is dual acting, meaning it works on the serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake, in the synapse
