> I'm beginning my fourth year on effexor xr this month. The drug has been a lifesaver for me, taking away the depression that I'd lved with as long as I could remember, giving me a boost of energy that had been missing, just basically making life more livable...in fact, making life enjoyable for the first time.

Mud,
I would certainly like to see more from those who have had success with effexor. I have just started effexor (3 weeks) and feel that it is helping. I'd like to hear more about your experiences with this drug and hear from other long-term users. Did you have much difficulty with side effects in the beginning? How high did you need to go on the dose? Were there times along the way that you considered stopping effexor? If so, what convinced you to continue?
We hear a lot about negatives of effexor and not enough about the successes. I think this thread could be very helpful to those of us just starting effexor and those deciding whether to try it, as well as a forum for those taking effexor long-term.
Thanks for starting this thread.
