@grandmar sounds you’re doing great, be proud of yourself.
I don’t recall if you have said before, I just drop in here so I can understand these drugs a little bit knowing people who take them, but what is causing you to want to reduce your dosage? It seems as if some people feel that these drugs have blunted their emotions, is that the reason generally that so many people want off?

Good morning,
The BIGGEST reason I want to significantly want to reduce my Effexor is because my memory is shot!! I am hoping I am not too late to counteract this side-effect.
In addition, I often feel like my head is 'cloudy' and last but not least I've not only put on weight, but losing is a lost cause no matter what I do.
Enjoy what is left of your weekend...
Ronnie (GRANDMAr)
