I think for a lot of people who've tried multiple medications with no success, the thought of going on another drug that may not work and then having to turn around and go through a hellish withdrawal is really scary.
I know that's what my fear was, and it was justified, I lost another 5 mos of my life thanks to trying Effexor.
