I personally would not recomend taking SJW while there is effexor in your system. It has a high probability of causing serotonin snydrome.

How much effexor are you currently taking ??

You may want to talk to your docotor about the prozac trick.

Prozac has a very long half-life. One pill can stay in your system almost 2 weeks. Prozac is much easier to withdrawl from because it leaves your system so slowly, not with a jolt like effexor. If you swich to say 10-20 mg of prozac, you can take that for a week or more, then discontinue it much easier.

Then at this point I would say it is safer to add herbals if your mood drops.
