Hi Damos,
I just wrote pretty much the same thing to someone else...but I stopped taking Effexor in September, and if you track my posts from "anyone have success on effexor," or whatever that one is called, you can see that I wrote tons and tons and tons :-) on the the subject....
It looks like we will finally have the help we need as we should not have had to go through this pain. I'm not sure if it will work for you in your part of the world, but I can sure try to find out if you'd like. I'm pretty sure that I will be able to help people in England...but I'm not at all positive. Please read my old posts to see how I got to where I am now if you have the patience to. k?
Bebe

Hi Bebe,
Yeah I'm trying to catch-up but reading too much is still causing my brain to explode in anger.
Glad you're making progress, and thanks for the offer but I'm okay and have just accepted what's happened as part of the journey. And to be honest I've got more from sharing with the wonderful people who visit this place - like you, than I could ever have believed was possible. I have never posted anything anywhere before.
I'm just trying to be thankful for the window of opportunity this drug gave me to face some harsh truths and realities - about myself mostly. Withdrawal sucked no doubt about it, but how I've managed it has actually given me hope for the future - that's surely a sign of serious mental illness.
I wish you well, and who knows I might even reach in to my shoe box of scribblings and dig out something a little less dark - that's assuming there is anything =0)

Hey Damos,
I'm glad to hear that you are making lemonade from lemons.
I think it is easier to accept the withdrawal if you have some idea that it is coming than if you were told that it didn't exist.
You've got a really good attitude :-)
