“….My new doc told me I could stop the effexor I originally took for depression and anxiety since it wasn’t necessary in my case. I am kinda afraid to stop it, I don’t know what to expect.”
I had been on Cipralex for depression and anxiety for years. My Dr told me to stop Cipralex when I started Concerta. I was hesitant as well – but have not had any issues with anxiety or depression since. I am on a different stimulant now, which is actually working! In fact even when I took Cipralex I still suffered from depression, which my Dr has told me is the side effect of dealing with my undiagnosed ADHD.
Different for everyone, but I was fine stopping my anti depressant when going on stimulants! Hooray!
