Hi Laney.
Effexor, Pristiq, and Cymbalta are all capable of producing severe withdrawal effects upon discontinuation. As you can see, though, the severity of the symptoms is variable between individuals. Some people have a relatively mild reaction. Of course, if one of these drugs works well, there may be no need to worry about withdrawal.
How bad is your depression right now? What other drugs are you interested in? Are you sure you want to treat your depression with medication? Have you tried psychotherapy?
