> EdExactly, and what's funny is that Effexor is not on the "bad withdrawal list" of SSRI's because it is suppose to be an SNRI and Paxil gets a bad rap.
Stopping Paxil was no problem compared to stopping Effexor for me and stopping Luvox was not a problem at all for me.
I guess half life doesn't exactly mean how nasty the discontinuation will be.
