I'm considering going off this stuff based on this message board and the fact that I haven't felt like 'ME' since being put on it. I needed something after my second and third child when the panic attacks started and the Psych DR prescribed 37.5 mg. It took about 6 weeks of panic attacks, my hubby thinking I was completely insane and driving around with my new children for hours until it was time to go home. My last child is now 3 and I am feeling like maybe I want to fell like "ME' again without the constant haze I get daily on Effexor and am completely terrified of even one panic attack.

I know my family doctor will just tell me 'Do what you think is best' and based on this message board I am terrified. I don't want to be one of those statistics. My family needs me too much! But I need ME back too!

Not meaning to beg, but any help or suggestions on this? What 'kind' of doctor is the right kind to go to to help wean off this stuff to make sure someone doesn't need it anymore?
