cold turkey off effexor on 18th August 2009!!
I'll do this in short sentences. I'll update later only if anyone is interested. Major child abuse - sexual, emotional, physical. Locked up all my life until 16 years old. Ran away when 16. First sex was rape. First sex became pregnant. Had two babies, both girls, by the time I was 19. Found all sorts of drugs. Raised girls by self. Now they are 23 and 21 and doing very well. One is an Honors student on scholarship at top Australian uni. Other works full-time as pharmacist. Been on and off drugs since 16. Been suicidal, have scars on arms from cutting self, have been diagnosed with bipolar, dissociative disorder, clinical depression. I am going cold turkey off Effexor at the moment. Its not as if I dont still get depressed on the stuff... so may as well be depressed in a 'whole mind'. Its working altho it sucks but I want it to be over quick, rather than a quick death from slowly withdrawing with same symptoms. I have done a lot of stuff in my life, seen a lot of stuff, know a lot of stuff, and don't know, and havent seen or done even more truckloads! Fairy
