Or maybe you work for one of the advertising agencies that makes a bundle peddling this crack on behalf of Wyeth. Or maybe you're a doctor who gets a kickback from Wyeth for prescribing it.

I knew what I was getting into before I started the Effexor. Every single question I had I wrote down and every symptom I had I wrote down as well and I tokk everything with me for my very first doctors appointment. Effexor wasn't my first drug and I'm sure it won't be my last, but I also educate myself before I even step foot into the dcotors office. The bottom line is my doctor isn't god nor does she know very single thing also the makes of all anti depressents aren't god as well. If it wasn't for sites with useful information people with all the trust and faith in there doctors will be land slided when it comes time to be medicated. I came to this site because of another medication not Effexor and when I saw posts I felt maybe the fact that I had a good expierence with the drug would be helpful for someone else. Like I said just because it works for me doesn't mean it will work for someone else. Just because Advil works for you it doesn't work for me so am I going to slander Advil?? I think not.
