I've been off effexor for about three months and although the initial withdrawel effects have passed certain disturbing symptoms have persisited.
i have constant blurry vision ....i get a lot of interference patterns also.
The other thing is i feel extreme anxiety...it gets so severe that i can't even leave the house...its extremely frightenening.
The reason i blame these symptoms on effexor withdrawel is because they were never problems BEFORE i was on effexor or while i was on it.
I thought my side effects were over in the first few weeks but now i'm not so sure. i'm wondering how many people have actually stopped effexor without going back onto it or any other meds and how long did it take for the symptoms to stop?
