thanks for your input. Was the one you were on Effexor? I experienced something similar on effexor. Yea, it's quite brutal on our bodies isn't it? this w/drawal.
Are you still on Serzone? Did it cause you to be a zombie? (I was a zombie on Zoloft). I need energy as I've got so much going on in my life. Did you sleep a lot on Serzone? Did you gain weight? How long were you on it? And what do you mean, that Serzone works really well for the people who can take it? What was the w/drawal like? Any electrical jolts?
Thanks so much.
Katia
