Ah yes, my ex threw that one at me when I told her about the Effexor. If I remember correctly her words were: "you can't function without putting some chemical into your body". I should've mentioned that if your husband does see a doctor it's very important that he mentions that he's an addict in recovery. EffexorXR is non-addictive, as are many anti-anxiety meds.
Thanks for the reminder, HQ.
