Louisa,
Effexor can be pretty intimidating when you get the lo-down on it. I know I started feeling like I wasn't getting the whole story from my Psych. I think part of this is that P-docs are afraid that you won't try anything if they tell you all of the side effects.
It's made me very distrustful of them in general which may or may not be founded in reality.......LOL I'm currently not on meds and am havng a hard time functioning. But my P-doc has only offered me, two Serzone or Remeron and I"m not happy with either choice, so here I sit.
I've got an appointment with my PCP tomorrow and know that I could get her to put me on just any old thing until I can find a decent P-doc.........but I hate the thought of having to go on and off meds a number of times.
Sorry to babble on. So are you staying on or deciing to get off of the Effexor?
Beth
