Sounds like you don't injoy the side-effects. Or the idea of taking medication. True eventualy you will need to get off, but don't worry about it.
>I am afraid of reality and dealing with all the problems I still have.<
Sounds like you think the medication is helping.
>Effexor puts me in a good mood, but maybe excersise will be better.<
Take the meds and exercise also. If you improve, your doctor might be convinced you don't need as much, eventualy none.
>MY $#@$ DOC PRESSURES ME INTO TAKING THIS PILL, HE $#@#$ GETS UPSET WHEN I SAY I WANT OFF, I DONT THINK THE @!@#^%$#^%# OF A !@%$#@%$#@ BE HAPPY IF I TOLD HIM I WANT OOFF<
Your doctor probably sees improvement in your condition and wants to keep helping, by looking out for your best interest, which seems to be the medication.
I think you should keep taking it untill you get better.
