How long have you been taking them? Unfortunately, it takes your body a long time to change those chemicals around so that you notice a big effect.
Usually, when you first start taking an antidepressant, you need to keep taking it for 1 full month before you even think about deciding it it is working or not. After that, whenever you add another medicine or increase your dose, give it another 2-3 weeks before you decide.
Treating depression is a long, often frustrating journey, but the end is worth it. When you wake up one day and realize that you are singing again - and you have not done that for years - or when you suddenly catch yourself smiling for no reason. You'll agree that it was worth the battle.

Are headaches common while taking Triphasil for birth control and Effexor for anxiety or depression?
I don't know what the correlation is between birth control and anxiety/depression medication but I do know that one of the side effects of taking the birth control pill is headaches, especially when you first start taking it. I agree with anonymous above, headaches is a common side effect when first taking the pill. I am on my second pack and my headaches can get pretty bad. As far as the anxiety/depression medication, you might want to ask your doctor but if the doctor prescribed your pills knowing you were on that medication you might be fine because they prescribe the pill that would be right for you based on your medical history. ask your Dr or pharmacist. i take both, and i do get bad headaches sometimes. headaches and migraines are a side effect of Effexor also, along w/ the pill I believe that headaches/migraines occur with Effexor especially if you don't take it close to the same time every day. Being off by just a little bit seemed to cause major headaches and nausea when I was on it. Withdrawal.
