Kara,

The only reason that this little loud and vocal group is so loud and vocal is because we have been through hell...and we don't want anyone else to have to be there quite by accident.

I am so very glad that you didn't have any problems when you tapered your withdrawal from Effexor, but from reading hours and hours of documented research and people's posts on websites in the United States and the UK, it seems that you may be in the minority, not the rest of us. But who really knows for sure? Not me. The addition of Prozac to the regimen may or may not help people get off of E more easily. There is no sure way to guarantee a smooth ride off the drug. The best thing that we can do is to try to yell as loudly as we can to others to not take it in the first place so that they won't have to risk being in the pain that we are now. And no, no one should ever, ever quit cold turkey!!! I did it, and I can safely say that no one else should ever do that :-).

We aren't doing this to upset anyone, quite the contrary.

Blessings.
