After having major problems in 2017 changing from Efexor-XR to Enlafax-XR, we want to try and get the process around funding of alternate brands of medication changed to make it less restrictive.

Please help by signing and sharing this petition.

There is also a Facebook page for people who have been affected by this - "ENLAFAX - problems with medication brand change NZ" please join if you have been or know of someone who was.

Hello,
Helen has started a petition to try and get our Government to take notice and start funding Effexor-XR again, Enlafax (the generic medication) has badly affected a lot of people but trying to get anything done about it is near impossible. Being on Effexor-XR is now very expensive as it is no longer funded at all, and many people with mental illness are on limited income.
Please sign and share this petition.
Thank you.

This includes the need for friendship or any type of relationship. No help no future goals no bucket list etc. Only thing I want is time to stop.. (not suicidal) physically can't achieve that.

People seeking closure are often denied that because of the confidentiality laws that we have. Often, those very same confidentiality laws are part of the cause of our depression and anxiety. I realize that "We can't force another person to do anything" but our laws are geared more towards protecting the confidentiality (legal) rights of a person than they are in saving the life of a depressed individual who is only seeking answers to a life-changing action that was taken

He's told me that he has anxiety and I told him that it doesn't effect the way I see him. The main reason I am a bit unsure how to approach the situation is because of my previous relationship. I was made to feel like a failure and to be extremely weak, and his words felt like they ripped straight through me
I don't take medication due to the fact that it makes me feel worse and causes my eczema to flare up.
