Paul, I know its a long time since you posted this message, but I found it interesting and wanted to thank you. I am a 38yr old woman who has been on ssris for twelve years - very successfully up until six months ago. I am suffering from drug 'poop out' effect, where the drug just stops working. My doctor is considering putting me on Effexor. But the last time I tried to come off the ssri (lustral) that I have been on for years, I got this constant light headed feeling, like my brain couldn't keep up when I moved my eyes or head. It was really horrible and weird. Did you go through that too? Now that youv'e been off the drugs for a bit longer, are you feeling ok? And, if you don't mind me asking, did you have any side effects with Effexor that affected your sex life? Thanks again for your message. All the best,
Fee
