I\'m going to an alternative natureopath to get off effexor. He said to start on SAMe as you cut back on the effex. slowly. SAMe helps stabalize your mood as well as detoxify your liver and helps your joints.....it seems to be helping. But I am also getting the withdrawal symptoms: nightmares, lots of anger, anxiety, fogginess, can\'t concentrate, getting paranoid, tired all the time. Screaming a lot. Being unreasonable. Feeling afraid, etc.....etc. I just started about a month ago....went from 300mg. for 5 years down to 150....mg...this hasn\'t been good....the doctor misunderstood what I was actually taking I think. I will be seeing him soon and I\'ll let you know what he says....this is unbelievable....someone should start a class action suit......question is...how will we all be when we do get off of it. My memory has never been so bad.
