In reply to Lexapro, Effexor or nothing, posted by NESuccess on June 15, 2005, at 9:18:03

I take Lexapro and it's been a good med for me. Prior to that I used Klonopin routinely and that was a good med also and continues to be. I knew for the past, I was unable to tolerate anything that worked on norepi due to already having an anxiety issue. So, I nixed Effexor as a choice.

In terms of med dependence, I made peace with that a long time ago. I had someone explain it very well to me. I have a finite number of days on this earth. I can struggle each and every day or I can use something that helps improve the quality of my life and hopefully, live with more contentment and better functioning. Either way, those days are going to go by.

I also realize the difference between medical dependence and addiction. There is a big difference. If I'm dependent on a med and I'm doing well, I'm okay with that -- some are not, but I am.

Good Luck,
Glydin
