I also went off my Efexor a few weeks ago with my psychiatrist's help. Down from 300mg to 225mg. I'm feeling alright, but perhaps an unhealthy focus on life's grim realities.

Yup.
Well, we all have these thoughts. I find the older I get, the more frequently I have them. It is not a bad thing, evan if it feels "fatalistic" It is a reality-it's just not wrapped up with pretty packaging . And it can make us take a look at our lives and see if we are spending our limited time how we should be. I had to laugh when I read your post, My thought was yup, until the "another generic human existance which will be filed and catalogued and accounted for" I thought, "I don't even know if I will be accounted for-I havn't been any big deal" and that is ok.
You mentioned about going down in your Effexor. It seemed like your were implying that because you went down in med, you are going "down" in your thinking (depression?) Always good to be aware of, but maybe your just having a short bit of time thinking that feels uncomfortable to you. Don't know. But whatever, I hope you are doing well! Thanks for posting.
