Willow,
It is good to know that Effexor is working for you. I would be wary of a doctor that wants to chain you to any drug for life. My doctor has told me that after a year of stability and treatment, it is possible to go drug free and try to lead a happy life. I know it's not possible for everyone, and I'm not there yet, although I am weaning off Effexor because of adverse side effects and withdrawal symptoms. Everyone is different. Just stay informed, don't miss a dose or take one late, and be very careful. I do wish you the best. Everyone deserves to be happy and optimistic again.
