Re: Effexor Question

You are right Caya, usually you only read the negative and not the positive. Very true. However, as far as Effexor goes, my doctor did tell me that yes, I would have to be weaned off of it. I'm not saying that is a bad thing. Not at all. But for me personally, it isn't something I wanted to go through. If I felt I had depression to go along with it, I might have considered it but I don't. I do have some blue days here and there but nothing I would consider needing treatment.

Thanks for chiming in and I am so happy it has helped you.
