Why do you want to try staying off the effexor is it was helping? I got over the feeling of not wanting to be on a antidepresent a few years ago. If you had diabetes you would stay on meds if they controlled that disease wouldn't you? If it helps you get through it stay with it. I know it sucks to be on anything, that is what found me at this site. I am 4 weeks into effexor at 75 plus 37.5 mg daily. If taking these meds were like taking a vitamin it wouldn't be that bad. Its the side effects and the fact that some of the other meds stop working. Don't consentrate on getting off the meds right now. Just consentrate at feeling good. I have found that going off meds just after i really started feeling good threw me back into the same sh*t. Hope this helps.
