>Anti-depressant medication is not THE answer. As you can see from babble there are many people dissatisfied with results or the ever pervasive "SIDE EFFECTS" (yeech!!) I haven't found the answer through meds. yet. I'm constantly trying new - coming off. Right now I'm going to try to do it without meds. I'm involving myself in some group therapy and separate cognitive therapy sessions - signed up for a course at University.

Hi bones,I was just wondering how things have been going for you since you stopped the meds? My effexor withdrawal is getting better since I also decided to do without; and I am also involving myself in other things. BTW I also decided to quit smoking (again). Now if I could only find a healthy way to resolve my repressed anger/frustration (main element of my depression), get rid of the weight gain (effexor?), and the smoker's hack...... Peace to you.
