Re: Re: Effexor Withdrawal = Depression and Anxiety!!
Posted by kate on 08/17/04 at 05:30 PMAfter taking care of my mother with lung cancer and my husband having an affair during this my doctor put me on Effexor xr(finally 150mg/day). I started having dizziness after 9 mos & wanted off(much to his dismay). I weaned 75mg-day,1wk 37.5mg-day,1wk and now three days later the electrical shocks,mood swings,nausea,headaches etc. The worst I\'ve ever felt.Broke down today and took 37.5mg and 1/2mg of Ativan and felt better within hours. Has anyone else taken Ativan while weaing for the symptoms? How long do I really need to wean myself?? I WANT OFF OF THIS JUNK!!! Thanks.....
