"uughhh...Effexor! I feel for you and what you must be going through with tapering off that!" — @JulesThanks so much. I was severely harmed by this poison when I missed a dose and then when I tapered it too fast. Nearly cost me my life. Anywho....yeah, this drug is the worst! I'm holding right now, but when I taper again I'm reducing bead by bead. Thanks for your support! ❤️

"I ended up in the hospital from withdrawing too fast. But funny thing, the docs denied what I was going through was withdrawal. Go figure." — @JulesI did too - the psych ward - due to almost "unaliving" myself due to the torture I went through. I've ended up in the psych ward twice in my life, and both times were due to the effects of antidepressant withdrawal. Doctors denying it exists is a worldwide health crisis!

"When I landed in the hospital that time, they out me on the medical floor. The times I tried to ‘unalive’ (I hate using that word, is it necessary here!?) myself (8 times due to the drugs and shocks) of course they put me in the psych ward- even had the pleasure of staying in ..." — @JulesGoodness, you've been through a lot too! Yep, fun times indeed - ugh. And I don't think there's anything wrong with using the word "suicide" here at all. I'm also on BenzoBuddies and you can't say the word "suicide," so maybe that's why I used the other word - out of habit lol.
