I hadn't read that thread, but looking through part of it,there were people who said positive things about effexor and one person even responded to the poster who got very scared by saying, I take effexor, its been great for me...... So in some ways, perhaps I feel you are not giving us enough credit.You're right, and this is territory I haven't wanted or thought I needed to be in much -- because Babblelanders do in fact come through. I learned very early just to trust the group. The thing is, I'm not sure how productive misinformation - > information - > misinformation - > information is, even if "balanced".
BTW, negative experiences - > positive experiences - > negative experiences - > positive experiences is different...
