And I really hate to post this.... because this thread isnt the place for this...but I read someone had said that they have seen "so many people" messed up and/or dead etc because of Rx meds and they are the worst option. I can say with high confidence that I have seen more people saved by meds (Effexor or what have you) than anyone has seen hurt by them.

Just some advice for anyone out there with a problem: Sometimes you need to talk to your doctor if the risks arent outweighing the rewards for YOU. You can get help. And there are a lot of crummy doctors too, for sure, and sometimes your current doctor isn't right for you either. But medecine is all about risks and benefits that need to be weighed out. Get to know your Pharmacist too, if they can't or won't answer your questions then find a good pharmacist you can trust and ask questions to. Don't be afraid to speak up if you just don't feel like your meds aren't benfiting you enough.
Different drugs work differently on different people and even sometimes they aren't the answer, but suicide is NEVER the answer.
