hello all,
im alex and i have been on effexor for about 3 months.. i started feeling the side effects so i read about it on the internet and it says it should not be prescribed to anyone under the age of 18 (my doctor presribed them to me)and i just turned 15 the other month.. what are the risks for me.. ?
i forgot to take them for 3 days once (i can never remember to do anything) and i had a couple drinks and i ended up passing out .. i wouldnt have drank if i thought that effexor would effect me like that, i read that it hasnt been proven that alcohol does anything to effect it so i thought oh well then ill be alright,...i also forgot to take them for 2 days cuz i was out of town for a bit.. and i started to feel really shaky, sweaty, nervous. and had many thoughts about death.. i feel good if i take them consistently. Yet i hear the discontinual syndrome is incredibly harsh.. should i try to get off of them now before i get to dependant?
please help im lost and confused
