For myself I'll probably be on it for quite some time. I've been seriously affected for at least the past six years. What caused my gad? Until I find a cause I can't begin to find a cure, so in the meantime effexor gets rid of it, completely.
Regarding the withdrawal, I'll take a prescription of prozac which stays in the system longer and prevents the negative affects of body adjusting to being without the medication. For myself effexor has cured all the syptoms people complain about during abrupt stopping of the medication. In a selfish way it makes me feel good to have someone experience what I've been living with.
