I've been off Effexor for 3+ weeks now with horrible withdrawals, and Vicodin is the ONLY drug I've found that helps. It's just that now my doctor thinks I'm a junky and wants me on another SSRI. I'm seeing an acupuncuturist and getting another PCP and psych in the meantime.
I only take the Vicodin as needed, but I just did an experiment and after about 18 hours it's brain shivers, body aches, head ache, nausea, etc. etc. all over again.
I wish the "medical community" would learn not to demonize certain substances while holding up others unquestionably.
