depression
"I have been diagnosed with ADHD (due to chronic, extreme lack of concentration), depression and anxiety. About 2 years ago, I began taking, by prescription, Effexor XR 75mg/day. My doctor at the time did not know much about SSRI's. The Effexer was working great but, she decided to send me to a counselor who cannot write prescriptions. My "doctor" stopped my Effexor, cold turkey, for no apparent reason, knowing counselor's cannot give it to me. I immediately began having extreme withdrawal symptoms. My every move caused me to hear and feel electrostatic "ticks". My head, ears, and jaw felt it was going to explode from pressure, and I was weak and uncoordinated. I honestly thought I was dying for over 2 weeks. I'm now taking Lexapro, Adderal, and Valium."
