> Witchy - Sorry, I hadn't read your earlier post about Effexor XR™ (venlafaxine). The start-up side effects that you are referring to do fade within 2 or 3 weeks, in most people. The can come back (usually milder) with every dose increase. - Cam
This medicine is scary to me after reading all the horror stories. It's bad enough i feel ashamed for having to take meds, because i'm NOT 'tough enough' to get thru whatever it is i'm going thru, and when i DO zone out, all i hear is "what's wrong with you?" from family members.
I didn't think being alone and very shy was a bad thing, guess i was wrong.
What happens when i want to come off Effexor? Then i go thru withdrawls? is this worth it?
HELP!
