I was on 150mg EffexorRX per day right from the start. I have chronic depression and prozac wasn't working for me very well any more and I had very little energy. I typed in Effexer Withdrawal and this website filled up at least the first page of my search. I was on Effexor for about 10 weeks now that I look at my calendar. My GP told me I could try it out and said nothing about going off slowly (I simply ran out of my samples before my follow up appt.) I have no health insurance so my doctor thought that the free samples would give me enough of an idea of whether this medicine would work for me or not. I guess I got scared because I feel so weepy and creepy...I don't mean to scare anybody about the drug but if you do try it do it slow and low dose.
