>Yesterday was the worst day for those "brain shivers" since I went cold turkey 4 days ago. I'm glad to report that I finally slept okay for the first time in a week. Before going cold turkey, my shrink had me stepping down slowly from the Effexor. But, it felt like slow death. So, I decided to go ahead a make it "sudden death" instead.
I'll let you know if I drop any weight. It's highly likely because I've been so nauseated. I've also had diarrhea. I'm also pissed that Effexor packed on a few pounds for me, not to mention it KILLED my libido too.
I hope you're doing okay today. I'm still doing the brain shiver thing, but it seems more mild today (so far anyway).
