After tryi...I didn't read the complete story... After trying to stop effexor twice with the result that I almost killed myself twice, and my brain had to recover for about 3 to 6 months, I made the terrible mistake to try it again.... I counted all the little balls in the capsule, and every two months I threw out 15 from the 150 balls. I lowered my intake to 37,5mg for a while, and after half a year I stucked at about 19mg. Then I encounteted some stressy moments and I was back in Hell on earth. The most extreme fear you can imagine just created in the brain...since previous fallbacks my brain felt a bit damaged cos I waited too long with taking the pills again, the only thing I could think of to save my life was to go back to the 37,5 immediately. That worked a bit, then the depression came after a couple of days, lot of suicidal thoughts, so I went to 75mg.. then at a certain moment the suicidal thoughts were back, so I took 75 plus 37,5 for a couple of days to suppres the thoughts, and after that I stuck to 75. That is now 2 months ago, I took the meds for more than 15 years. Im serious thinking of taking a tatto that reminds me of never quiting that shit again... Its really dangerous stuff. They should not prescribe it to new patients anymore...too dangerous, too much suffering...but I made it again, peace to all of you, stay strong!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13262775948812580761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104531010466903059.post-3608473533162766132018-11-02T08:00:14.046-06:002018-11-02T08:00:14.046-06:00Sounds like you're on a much higher dose than ...Sounds like you're on a much higher dose than I was because I didn't have those side effects, but at only 37.5mg it was easy to titrate off (opened the pill up and took out the more beads each day lol) but once I stopped completely my brain didn't know what to do. I got very suicidal and depressed after a few weeks (not trying to scare you or anything) and the mood stabilisers I started after Effexor were too low a dose to combat the depression. Its possible that <a href="https://pillcomparer.com/lexapro-vs-effexor.html" rel="nofollow">Effexor</a> also started my rapid cycling, which is still kicking my ass even with my new meds.alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16633627833926901109noreply@blogger.com
