I took effexor for several years. It worked for a while but then it seemed to stop working... then again I was drinking a lot when it wasn't working.

I am now on celaxa and it is working but without the same side effects of effexor.... no shakes, no nervousness, etc.

Same idea, just different chemical.

I know I have to do more than take the med, I have to seek help and I have to be healthy, the med is only one step.
