A member asked:

After sleep during the day i feel dizzy but consuming sweet stuff make me feel better, only day long sleep make me bad.venlafaxine sr 1500 per day.

Need more info: I believe that more information is needed to make sense of your concerns, but i wanted to make sure that you are not taking venlafaxine 1500 mg, since that is much too high a dose. A typical dose might be 150 mg daily.
