To all of you who are in living hell regarding Effexor withdrawal: I'm a regular poster on this board, particularly on anti-depressant Parnate and the benzo drug Klonopin. I've had no experience with Effexor, but for well over a year I've read posts on this board and elsewhere about the horrors of withdrawing from Effexor. I believe the latest world statistics show that Paxil and Effexor are the toughest drugs to quit. My only advice is this:
1) If you're in any way dissatisfied with your doctor, do your utmost to find one who is sympathetic and qualified to help you withdraw.
2) Keep posting on this board and communicate with others who have suffered like you and found a way to beat the beast.
3) Check out any possible avenues toward class action lawsuits against the manufacturer. I believe that there is a large one going on in England, and you might be able to learn about some worthwhile "fight back" tactics from them.
Good luck to all of you and I pray that you'll come out winners against the big bucks companies who care only about one thing: the Almighty Dollar.
