I was on effexor for 5 months but last month stopped because they werent working. I was taking them for anxiety and at the beginning they were great, made me mellow the fuck out then after a couple months they did fuck all for the anxiety. Being bulletproof to depression was a nice perk but I was back at square one for my other social problems. And like you I decided that masking my hatred for people through pills is a bad idea like putting a band aid on a bullet wound, so I stopped them cold turkey. My withdrawal symptoms only lasted for 5 days but they fuckin sucked. I felt hung over nausea all the time and every time I looked side to side quickly Id get a zolt of car sickness in my stomach. Yours will probably last longer being on them for so long and all. I feel like it was one of the best decisions ive made in my life so far. Good luck and dont trust the Irish.
IIN if I stopped taking my antidepressants?
