I stopped taking Effexor XR after having taken doses of it that would kill an elephant (600 mg), only because it didn't work. But my father in clinical practice says that Effexor and the SSRIs work for a majority of patients.

I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms after going off of it cold-turkey. This is perhaps because the other medications I was on took care of certain symptoms somehow--BuSpar, Mirtazapine, Dramamine, Depakote, Tegretol....
