EFFEXOR (feedback)

I saw mt Dr. Since I have never really responded well to SSRI's he prescribed Effexor 37.5
for my panic attacks and GAD.

I see that Effexor contains MDMA which is the drug Ecstacy. Side effects could be increased blood
too.

Has anyone had success or failure in usung Effexor? Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks for the feedback. My psychiatrist looks at this med thing the same way you do. I tried Cymbalta about 6 months ago, I had to stop taking it before 1 week was up, but he told me it works grest for other patients.

I will give Effexor a shot and stay positive.

People react different to the same drugs. Might work for you and not work for me. Would be unfair for me to tell you it was a horrible tablet to take. Because it might be the best tablet you ever took. I am sure you will get various reactions to the tablet from various forum members. I think it is a hard tablet to get on and even harder to come off when the need arises. But that is just me. I have read miracle stories about the tablet from other forum members. They would claim I was wrong. I did try it and it went against me. So that is why I say what I say. Works well for others.
