Sounds to me like I hit a raw nerve (pardon the pun)...
I've learned a lot from this forum and it has been quite enlightening. However, it can also be pretty scary for those of us on our first go round of AD meds.
I asked the question "What's your worst withdrawal on Effexor XR?"
I truely meant the question to gather personal info since, after reading some of the threads on this site, I have been struggling with what to do. Should I continue taking E-XR or ask my doc to change me to something else?Therefore, I was kind of surprised by the thread "Don't worry about withdrawal symptoms".
I ask you, how can a person NOT be concerned with something so serious? I mean, who amoung us can judge whether someone is suffering enough to be put on AD meds? You don't know me and I don't know you. So, whether it be a short term freak out or something much more severe, your doctor is the one who prescribed the meds and he/she knows why.Again, I'm more concerned with the side effects of E-XR and also what I can possibly expect later on. My question was never intended to discount another person's condition.
Good Luck to all of you!
