I just started taking Venlafaxine the other day and I'm noticing that my chest is getting more numb and tight every day. It's even giving me a bit of pain and makes it hard to breathe sometimes. I've heard I shouldn't just stop taking it because of withdrawal issues. Are these symptoms something that usually happens, or is something wrong? And if I decide to stop it soon since I just started, would I still go through withdrawals?

View allI've been thinking a lot about rabies and how it works. I read that rabies has a long incubation period and that you're generally safe as long as you get vaccinated before showing any symptoms. Is it true that as long as you get vaccinated before the virus reaches the brain, you're okay? Here's what's on my mind: in 2001-2002, I got a minor dog bite, but I didn't get a vaccine back then. Years later, around 2008, I started worrying and ended up getting vaccinated, like 17 shots between 2008-2012. But I can't shake off the fear from that dog bite years ago. It just won't leave my mind, and I'm scared I might develop rabies in the future. Is that a possibility? What should I do to protect myself? If there's no risk, I really need reassurance because living with this fear is tough. Can you help me figure this out?
Anti rabies vaccination is given at 0,3,7,14 days interval.The wound is cleaned thoroughly with soap water and povidine iodine .
