If you have been off of the Effexor for three months, it may be a return of your anxiety symptons (I am assuming, and sorry if I am wrong, that you had in the past suffered from anxiety). Before you go back on Effexor, you might want to try 500 mg of niacimide, three times a day to see if it helps with the anxiety. However, if your anxiety is unbearable and interfering with your quality of life, you may want to see your doctor about another AD or a small prescription for a benzo that can help you bring the anxiety under control.
Take care, and I hope you find some relief soon.

> I have been completely off of Effexor for about three months. I weened off of it for about three months also. About two weeks after completely being off of it, I had a huge overwhelming anxiety attack. I haven't been the same since. I feel nervous and crazy all of the time. I just want to be able to feel better. Do you guys think that I may need to go back on Effexor???? Please help.
