Missing a Dose of Effexor - Vivid Dreams and Being Zoned Out?


Recommended Posts

I woke up this morning in the middle of a extremely vivid dream. Not a scary dream or nightmare, but a very vivid one.  In fact, after waking up it took me a minute to realize where I was.  Even after getting my bearings, I still felt disoriented and confused.

What worried me was this sense of being zoned out and disoriented. You see, my wife was on the phone with the cable company concerning the internet and asked me for my phone number (because the account is in my name). I found that I initially couldn't remember my phone number!

I found myself feeling weak an zoned out throughout the morning. Then I started thinking back to last night and realized that I didn't remember taking my nightly dose of Effexor. Are the symptoms I described normal for missing a dose or should I be more concerned?

I don't know about vivid dreaming as I don't think I've slept without taking my dose, but I get really shaky, headachey, and definitely zoned out when I forget to take a dose after a few hours. I also get this weird thing thats hard to describe, it's like being dizzy, but like when I move my head, my eyes take a while to follow.. Its horrible anyways, I always try to remember to take it on time because of the withdrawal symptoms!
