> Today is day 5 on 37.5. I'm not going to take it. I know I am horrible at taking pills and I will not last long, but, I need to quit now before I get too far, because I'm so terrified of the side effects.
CHER,
I took Effexor 1 year ago for several months. I quit because my boyfriend didn't like the decrease in sex drive. Beyond that, I had very few side effects, and NO withdrawal problems. I'm sure they happen to a percentage of all users. Just like I'm sure a percentage of all drivers have car wrecks. I still drive though. I wish you wouldn't quit because of the negative posting. Your situation will be unique. I wish you would make your decision to stay on it or quit based on how it is working for you. It takes a few weeks to find that out.
Kim
P.S. I went back on it because I remembered how well it was working for me. I never should have quit because of a boyfriend's complaints.
