Scott,
No Lou didn't cause me to think twice about anything actually. I just have always had this thing about trying effexor because of the horrific w/d's I've had with paxil thus the reason I'm still on 10mg. I mean I don't need that kind of hell in my life for sure. Cymbalta is the same drug isn't it?
I just don't think I want to mess with anything that is nortorious for severe withdrawl. Been there. Done that.
What are Pristiq w/d's likely to be like? Looks like Cymbalta w/d's are really bad like effexor.
But no, not to affend you Lou, but I try not to read your posts at all.
Thanks,
Laney
