I have been on Effexor 150mg per day for around 8 weeks.The side effects were bad.complete loss of libido and interest in sex.
I went cold turkey 4 days ago,but have been on lithium orotate [serenity] for around 3 weeks.
The only side effect at this time is the numbness and tingling in the lips and fingers.
I believe that the lithium might be helping and it is a natural compound.
At least if some of the other symptoms appear I will be able to identify from the previous posts.
