Hi, @smurf - I'd like to invite some of the previous members of this discussion to return to comment on whether they may have tapered off of venlafaxine (Effexor) and gone on vilazodone (Viibryd) -- and if so, how the switch was done -- like @karenlm @kelsousmc @parus @shellminski @littlelulu @ebeth.

I''d also like to tag some others who have mentioned vilazodone (Viibryd) to see if any of them switched to this medication after many years on venlafaxine (Effexor), like @cjspizz @jeanmnyc @susirep @anon40779520 @pixie115 @pinto @barnowl53 @hoagie6.

Is there another GP or psychiatrist you might consult for a second opinion on the process of moving from the venlafaxine (Effexor) to the venlafaxine (Effexor), @smurf?
