This is exactly how I would describe it too. It made it especially difficult to go to sleep, as every time I was about to drift off lightning would strike and jolt me wide awake. It’s the worst feeling I have ever experienced by far, it lasted for months and I feared I had damaged my brain permanently.

I had the same reaction after a couple of weeks of excessive use of ecstacy pills (unknown ingredients obviously, but it felt like it contained a very large dose of MDMA or perhaps MDA), albeit in a much milder form and only lasting for about a week. The first two weeks after I started taking Effexor I actually felt like I was constantly coming up on MDMA, the feeling tapered off shorty after and all I was left with was the horrible side effects. Worst drug I’ve ever used.
