Effexor Withdrawl

Posted by Leigh on March 13, 1999, at 14:47:08

Why wasn't I told when starting this medicine that it would be so difficult to get off of? I started on July 13, 1998. Did no one know then?

I was taking 300 mg a day. The withdrawl symptoms nearly parallel my depression. Even right now, I feel nauseous and dizzy and my head hurts. The description I read earlier of "a migrane without the headache" is pretty accurate, but my head hurts now, too.

And my dreams are scary. So real. I honestly don't know what part of "Armageddon" was real and what part I dreamed.

I just read that Benadryl helps. How long can I expect to have these symptoms and are they physically dangerous to me? How long should I take Benadryl?
