PoisonPills: Effexor XR and Seroquel Nightmare
PoisonPills posted a topic in Introductions and updates
Hello Everyone Just introducing myself to you all. Im completely new to this kind of thing, so bear with my training wheels! Hope I've posted this in the right spot.... Hoping to find information, support, validation and shared experiences here. Have hit a seriously low point on my journey, and feeling (almost) ready to admit defeat. I would so appreciate any insights, experiences or information you can share. So far I have found the site very informative and a source of great comfort in a strange kind of way - it has certainly helped me feel a little less alone, and alot more validated. He- 38 replies

Hello - sorry to attach this as a file; did not know I could not copy/paste [edited by Karma to paste contents into post] Hello I need some math help, I think. Just found/joined your forum. I have been taking Effexor XR for about 8 years [1 - 150mg/day], I really want to stop taking it for all sorts of reasons.

Meowgusta: Starting my medication taper today, everything hurts.
meowgusta posted a topic in Introductions and updates
Hi everyone -- I am so happy to have found this community! I had decided earlier in the week to go off my medications but thought that I could just space my doses out further & further apart.. ha. Well this afternoon my brain started zapping and I realized that I needed to do some serious research, and here I am. I started on antidepressants back in the mid 90s when I was a teenager because of severe anxiety and depression. First on Prozac for a few months, which I quit cold turkey because I was 16 and stupid, and then Paxil (40 mg) for about 4 years which I managed to ween myself off- 5 replies
