I can relate to the withdrawal effects of effexor rx. I had been on them since Mar 04 and am gradually weaning myself off them. I have been experiencing the \"noise\" in my head, but the worst is feeling like I\'m between waking and dreaming all the time, like I could fall asleep or lose consiousness and its scary. Right now, my doctor is having me take the 37.5 every other day and I have a few more days to go on it. I was on the 75mg. But I have not felt any lessening of the withdrawals. I\'m very glad this site is out there. It\'s good to know no one is alone is this...
