I've tried to stay out of this one, too, but Wendi makes me feel like a chicken so I'm just going to stick my toe in the water and run like heck. It has taken me a long time to get to the semi-stable state I am in now. I am happy with my low dose of effexor xr (75mg) - not ecstatic, but happy. I was taking a much higher dose but felt 'wrong' in every sense. My doc agreed to let me cut it back to where I had felt the most comfortable. I continued taking my other meds - neurontin, topomax - and had no difficulty cutting back. I credit the other meds' help and luck. It was pretty much the same as when I quit taking Paxil after an extended period of time. Just another individual's experience.
