It occurs to me that a lot of people probably don't realize they are experiencing withdrawal. From what I've read some of these symptoms can be attributed to a mild flu: (headaches, skin sensitivity, tiredness etc)
Chances are some people think they have a flu, don't connect it to Effexor withdrawal and never report it to their doctors. This would explain why my Doc thinks I'm lying to her, since no one she's weaned off Effexor has gone through this according to her.
It make me feel like I'm a nutcase with "pretend" symptoms or something. Grrr.
