Red face Efexor-XR

Hello to my Anxiety Forum family on S & R,

Just an update on my situation at the moment, as I have been using dial-up Internet lately & it is soooo slow which has limited my contact with everyone here on Sober & Recovery.......

My Psychiatrist & I have made a mutual decision to wean me very slowly off Valium or Diazapam & he has referred me to a Psychologist to learn how to cope with my Panic Attacks, without the use of Benzodiazepines.....

I am reconsidering my decision to not take Anti-Depressants & I am going to start taking Efexor-XR soon, but I have to be sure that it doesn't conflict with any of my other meds....

I am on Solian 400mgs for Paranoid Psychosis & 200mgs of Epilim which is now used to treat mania....

I read on a pharmaceutical pamphlet that Epilim shouldn't be taken with SSRIs, but I'm going to do some more research on the subject, as my Psychiatrist said that Efexor-XR would be okay to take with Epilim....

I don't think Efexor-XR is an SSRI, but I'm not sure yet....

God bless everyone on Sober & Recovery,
