well, as for the concern about the BP, i guess the list of potential side effects are really VERY long and people are just affected differently - and thankfully, mine is great. in my case, i'm more concerned about the effects on my eyesight and a change i've experienced there (i've got a rather serious potential risk that could be greatened by the drug). if my opthamologist says get off effexor because of increased eye pressure, i certainly will do so...even tho my experience has been good thus far.
like i said, i appreciate reading about the withdrawl experience because i know i won't be on effexor forever (doc suggested 9mo to 1 year) - even though it isn't likely to happen tomorrow. so thanks to everyone. you're giving me something to think about.
