I have a couple of questions. Why are you on Klonopin? Isn't there something milder you could use? And why on earth would your doctor want to take you off something that is working? I, too, would question his motives. I have been on Effexor for longer than I probably should have been. Looking back on my long list of antidepressants, Prozac stands out as the one with the fewest side effects. Tell your doc that you want to stay on Prozac. I'm going to ask mine to put me back on as soon as I can get off the #&#($&@%# effexor.
A thought has occurred to me (one does now and then.) There are so many new antidepressants coming out all the time that how else can doctors know how they are going to work without trying them out on all us psycho types? Cheers, and have a good day.
