> I am new.I have had depression my whole life.Pamalar(sp?)was my first drug in the mid 80's.It was a true miracle drug for me.3 weeks and I poped out of it.Being young when I was better I quit the meds.Looking back I should of stayed on them.I got better with Pamalor 5 times and then quit over a 10 year period.I was in my teens/twenties and there was a big stigma in our family.Welbuterin has worked fine for years and is now pooping out.I go on Effexor Monday.After Pamalor,Effexor should be a walk in the park as far as side effects.People should do research on there own and take this forum with a grain of salt.Thank God for these drugs!My brother killed himself 20 years ago over depression and I have had a decent 20 years with them.I'm in great shape and should live a long time,but I have a problem that can be traced back a ways in my family.Quite a coincidence if not inherited.I'll let you know how it goes.My feeling after research is that this will work great for me.
I appreciate that you have had a hard time of it but this drug is very wierd, I have started sleepwaliking after never having done that in my life. When u miss a dose or try to withdraw it gives u the most wierd feelings. It is very scary. Everyone I know accepts that I am normal now but everytime I try and cut down the drugs I go very bizarre. It's scary
