Thank you so much for your post. I have now been on Effexor XR for 4 months, that now seem to have flown by. I started with 37.5 and am now taking 75 in the morning and 75 at night and things seem to be going well. After finding out what it is truly is like to be happy, I feel that I have been depressed for many many years without knowing. I had a very tragic childhood and was raised by my Grandparents. Due to the generation gap depression was not something people spoke about. I am so glad that in this day and age it is starting to be accepted and there are places like this that people can go for support and discussion.
My doctor plans on me to be off the drug at the end of one year of treatment. Does anyone feel this is attainable?
He also wants me to go to 150 day and night. Does anyone think this is required? or too much?
Thanks for everyone's comments!
