I've never been sure that this medication helps or makes me feel worse. It's always in the back of my mind, the doubts that it is doing any good. I think I will scrap effexor and seroquel and go with just a benzo if the doc will permit me too. I havn't been 'sober' in years either from Rx drugs or ilicit. With a benzo I can choose not to take it if I please to see what happens, then can go back if I freak. I really want to try this. Anyone else ever done anything like that and had good results? The doc will probably want to up my dose and not see any benefit of going off my meds, but I need to try it for my own curiosity. I've found no perfect drug and now realize there is no such thing. Feeling controlled by medication drives me insane. It pisses me off every time I take the effexor in the morning. Why would anyone want to take something if they didn't think it really helps? I want out of this loop!
