In reply to Effexor XR ~ Any Good Stories?, posted by PanicAttackGal on January 20, 2004, at 15:07:51
worked like a charm twice for me in the past. only sexual side effects the first two times I took it. felt normal again after about 4 weeks of taking it, but started feeling better after 1 week.
I think it was 75 mgs. Doc never told me about tapering to quit. Tried stopping first time cold turkey and just got dizzy (like when you miss a dose) so I just stayed on it for another couple of months. Tried quitting again cold turkey and had ZERO problems, no dizzyness, no nothing. Pure normality for a few years
You hear a lot of horror stories about Effexor and others because people only post the bad things. This and other meds works wonders for millions of people (but sometimes not so well for others in some cases, and those are the ones you usually hear about) Good luck to you
