Severe Venlafaxine withdrawal

I think the dangers of depression are more frightening than some unpleasant side effects during withdrawal Pat! If it's kept you well, celebrate ! There's plenty of other things to worry about !

This is worse than depression for me! I've learnt to cope as I've been through so much in the last 10 years. Ridiculously so. 2 of the worst things that could happen to me did. After cancer is never let depression run my life, it's too precious! Trust me, I've suffered and done stupid things many times. I don't really want to talk about that though as its a bit too personal for a public forum x

I agree. To be prescribed such a high dose of this drug makes you wonder if they should be looking at something different x
