Effexor and dreams?

Anyone else have alarming dream?

I used to take 75 mg but now I take 100 mg. I started getting scary dreams even when I am a little late on taking my next dose and especially when I accidently forget a whole dose.
Some of the dreams I get are gorey, dark, scary, and I end up screaming, crying, or hyperventilating outloud while sleeping.
Last night I was crying and screaming outloud because in my dream I was lost in DC and my parents were mad at me. A week ago, I dreamed of a dog biting my side and I screamed outloud. A couple weeks ago, I was hyperventilating while dreaming.
I can't stop the medicine because I feel great while I am awake.

Should I just go back down to 75 mg? Will it be weeks of these kind of dreams when I do so? Would I get those awful withdrawl effects?
Best answer:
Sleep and dreams also are affected by a great variety of drugs and medications, including alcohol. Further, stopping certain medications suddenly may cause nightmares. It is advisable to discuss with your physician the effect of any drugs or medications you are taking.
