Hi,
Thank you for your advice. I have decided to just suffer through the dizziness, and nausea. I do not want to take one more of those effexor pills! I definately feel it is prolonging this withdraw/agony. I listened to my MD/GP, and tried to do her recommended taper. I was taking 37.5 mg every 4 days. I am done! No more! I think if I just ride this out, and hang in there, I'll feel better soon, and be done with this med.! I really do believe that people should be told how bad it is to stop this medication BEFORE they start taking it. I wish I had known more about it. I don't really want to take anything, but I know I need to for now. I am taking Wellbutrin now, so I really don't want to add Prozac to the mix too. But thanks for your advice. Does anyone know how long I can expect to feel this way? Or is it different for everyone?
