Thanks Caleb.

I'm not really psychotic either, just bummed alot. I got that name from Married with Children. You know; Al's favorite show. I think it's funny. Thanks to being a Dad though at least have have lots to look forward to all the time. My daughter is such a sweetie!!

Peace.

And very mild withdrawal when I stop cold turkey for a week or two--ALTHOUGH I DON'T RECOMMEND ANYONE TRY THIS (disclaimer). Now, if SSRIs are causing you sexual dysfunction, then Effexor will problably give you this same problem since Effexor is an SNRI. In other words, it still inhibits reuptake by the presynatic neuron (just like SSRIs).

The fact is Effexor is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs today. Perhaps because it works? Perhaps because the millions of people who take without incident far outnumber the ones who call for it to be banned? You have to make the decision, but I have found it to be a life saver.
