Linkadge, thanks so much for the thoughts! I figured the same thing about the Effexor stoppage: if I'd gone nearly three months with no depression, why did it start again? I've also read that although Lunesta isn't a benzodiazepine, it has created some of the same havoc with our brain chemicals. Therefore when you cease usage, you can have some of the same withdrawal symptoms as a benzodiazepine( I've never used one) which after researching today, fit into what's happening to me. Any thoughts on this?
