Thank you so much for your input.
Effexor is working great for me, I have been on it for three years. I have gained about 15-20 pounds on it, which I know is not that bad, but it seems like every year an extra 5-7 pounds creeps up on me (and I have maintained the same food and exersize routine).
I chose Xanax before because I have used it before and it is a fast acting med. Unfortunately, it has a short half-life.
Do people do better using Ativan???? Or should I try Valium with a longer half-ife??
Thank you,
Violet
