In reply to Effexor Withdrawal - Zach's testimony, posted by zbdrums on June 29, 2002, at 21:52:39
Zach: I'm sorry to hear that you are going through this very difficult time. Much of what you describe I also experienced a few years ago, when I tried Prozac. Probabably the withdrawl from Effexor is causing your current anxiety. I would talk to your Doc about tapering off, and starting a new med simultaneously? Also you might look into Serzone, no sexual problems and very good for anxiety. I'm also a big believer in the connection between joint and soft tissue pain and chronic anxiety. If you could get yourself on track and find peace, the pain might go way down, if not entirely away. Stay positive, and have faith. And try not to worry too much about being the best, even if you are the best, being simply who you are, and not letting the hierarchical views of others be too important, will be helpful. I speak from personal experience.
Best of luck,
Cary
