Well, quite frankly I felt like I was going to die when I stopped taking effexor XR. I had been taking 300 MG for only two years and my doctor had decreased my dose from 300 to 150 for one week and then to 75 for a week. Did no good.

Headaches, could not sleep, racing heart beat.

I started taking Sam-E 300 MG twice daily for one week and after third day felt absolutely great. Ran out and felt like crap again. So, I am taking Sam-E now and I feel way better than I was taking Effexor. And, Sam-E is good for your liver and joints (supposedly).

For me, Sam-E 300MG 2x/daily completely got rid of withdrawl symptoms. Also, I have a sex drive back, and I am losing weight (Effexor decreased by metabolism and made me fat). In addition, my sleep is down from 10 hours to 7 hours and I feel much more aware.

Bye.
