In reply to EFFEXOR, PAXIL withdrawals Vs Klonopin Withdrawal, posted by Pluto on June 22, 2004, at 0:24:10
HI,
I beg all of your pardon. I forgot to add, I am not at all against Effexor, paxil, prozac , klonopin or xanax etc. I know some of us can only function normally with a medicated brain. I myself take the substituted benzamide sulpiride at a low dose level to keep a cool head.
So taking medications to function normally is not a sin. But it is mischievous to discriminate them as one is addictive and the other is not.Arguemtns are often made as use of antidepressant drugs are not being frequently monitored as benzodiazepines because they are not reinforcing agents as the later. Unfortunately this is only handy for Docs if they forget or ignore the fact of dependence induced by these antidepressant agents. When withdrawal complications arise, they simply suspend them as the re-emergence of original symptoms and Rxing again and again for the same. Trapping a patient in a medweb is like sentencing him or her for life. Many patients have fortunately been able to stop hard meds by substituting them with softer stuffs like ativan, xanax or klonopin.
PLS
