Thanks for sharing that with us. Anxiety sucks...most of us here know that.
The docs tried 17 different antidepressants on me. Only the Effexor worked. That's why I was on it 33 years. There is no shame in taking medications to live a normal life.
I am glad it is helping him and thus you also.
Hang in there, we hate to see our children suffer, don't we.
Thanks for sharing that, smiling at you. Bright Wings

Good morning!
I've NEVER been ashamed. This disease is just a part of who I am.
My philosophy has ALWAYS been...."this is me. Like me or not, it is your choice."
My son has not yet started the Effexor. He is on vaca and didn't want to try anything new until he returns.
