> I can't figure out why everyone is so convinced that Effexor is bad for you and it is evil. I have been addicted to more serious drugs like: Marijuana, Meth, alchohol, and cigarettes. This is just to name a few, not to forget gambling, now I am in recovery and currently 7 years clean and sober thanx to 12 step programs, and it seems like everyone thinks Effexor is so bad, but maybe it isn't and all you have to do is change your atttitude and maybe you will be happy of such a drug.
Are you on Effexor? Have you tried coming off of it? I don't think I said once in my message that the drug itself was bad...I said coming off of it has been hell. While I was on it, I was doing quite well, besides the first few weeks adjusting to it and the sexual side effects that stick with you throughout it all...but I never said that it didn't help me while on it. If you are coming off of it, you can relate to what we all have said.
