I am so glad that I found this internet site. I have been off effexor for four days now. I was on 75 mg. for two years or more. My doctor cut my dose in half for a month and four days ago that ran out. I am having horrible withdrawls. It is so hard to describe how I am feeling. I am having jolting electric shocks in my brain. My vision and hearing is not normal and my brain feels like it is knocking around in my head. I am having trouble writing this e-mail because my thoughts are so incomplete. I hope that this all end soon. I feel like I am crazy.
