Anna, Just beware that quitting Effexor has been reportedly much harder than starting. The side effects seem to be different and more severe when you quit. Not a lot of understanding as to why or how long the withdrawal lasts, but just take it into consideration before you decide this course. On the bright side, it seems to be very effective, especially when other meds fail. Just weigh the consequences and be savvy. Read about withdrawal on this posting site.
