In reply to Switch from Lexapro to Effexor XR???, posted by theo on May 26, 2003, at 10:53:00
Well, with the horrible withdrawl of Effexor XR I am switching to Lexapro 10 mg. I hate to see you are moving in the opposite direction since I am somewhat fearful of lexapro anyway. I do know that the "brain shocks" are too intense to drive or work or even be around people starting 24-40 hours after my last dose of effexor and have lasted a week before I broke down and took it again. I tried to stop about 5 times, and it is awful. Rage and vertigo were symptoms as well, hence my isolation.
All of us are different though, maybe both of us will benefit from the trade-off...
