First, the answer to your other post. Yes, nausea is a common side-effect for some people with Effexor withdrawal from what I've experienced and read in other posts. It'll pass in time.
As far as posting, if you're looking for specific advice, be specific in your questions. You know, something like "I'm looking for people with personal experience" or, "Please no technical responses, just a yes or no". Some people get very technical, some post textbook responses from the Internet, some quote personal experience. Depends on the individual I suppose. I think if you're specific about what you want, you get it...eventually.
I hope you feel better soon,

For instance, take my latest post. All I was seeking really was a yes or no response -- is nausea a symptom of Effexor XR withdrawal? I thought I explained that I didn't want to go off into other withdrawal symptoms, because I didn't want to put ideas in my head -- I don't want to think every twitch in my body as I am tapering the Effexor is related. However, the one and only responder went into great detail. Now as soon as I saw that the poster was doing this, I quit reading.
