Weaning from Effexor - Nightmares

Posted by Seraphim on May 4, 2001, at 9:03:58

I've been weaning now for two months. 300mg down to 37.5mg. Now I'm stuck. It's been almost three weeks and my body isn't adjusting to the 37.5. I know, take it slow, follow previous advice, etc...
The real problem now is NIGHTMARES. I've experienced the vivid dreaming, waking repeatedly throughout the night, feeling like I have the flu (especially in the morning),migraines, but it's nothing compared to the nightmares I've been experiencing lately. I guess I should admit that nightmares have been a problem in the past, but it's been years since I've awaken screaming or terrified. Is it me, or has anyone else weaning from Effexor experiencing the same? They are more realistic and vivid than I thought imaginable and I have a hard time letting them go. Any advice is welcome.
