Well I put a call into my doctor's office to talk to the dr taking calls for my dr while he's on vacation. He is going to give me another week of 37.5mg so I can back off slowly. But he was pretty adamant about me not stopping. He asked me what I was afraid of. He even told me that his wife is on it and she has no problems.

So then he told me I should try something else. He said he's going to leave me a month of Lexapro to try. He also suggested Zoloft.

I think I'm going to wean off the Effexor and then I don't know what, but according to what I'm reading about Lexapro - I'm not too thrilled about that either (weight gain). I think I'm not going to start anything else until I get more information. I hate taking anything!!

So anyway, thanks to those of you that responded - I really appreciate it!!!
