My question is why are people coming off in the first place??? All of a sudden because you feel better for a day or 2 that means you just jump the gun and quit meds cold turkey??? It isn't like you walk into a corner variety store and buy effexor with your bag of chips. Obviously everyones doctor prescribed the meds for very good reason and hey guess what sometimes those good reasons keep people on there meds for as long as they are. I have been on effexor for over a year and I'm proud to say I will never come off what for did my depression magically disappear I wish it did. If I had a headache is someone going to slag me because I take tylenol?? If I was a diabetic and you going to take away my insulin?? I don't think so, people have a hard time remembering what they said to there doctor just before the prescrption was written. I just don't understand the logic in people really I don't yes some have had negative effects from effexor but hey alot of people haven't that's why the drug is prescribed. Giddy up to people who don't need meds and don't take them, but always remember you did need them at one time.
