In reply to Withdrawal from Effexor XR, posted by cle on March 31, 2001, at 22:54:24
Hang in there. I had symptoms for about 3 weeks and at times, felt like they were never going to end, but they did! From what I have read, withdrawal from this drug varies a great deal for each individual.
I took Advil for the constant headaches but nothing worked for my severe GI symptoms (including bad stomach pain.) The only other thing that seemed to help me cope was to get outside and walk in the sunshine. Moderate exercise inside or outside was also helpful.
