I am totally going to try the dramamine! Or even Benadryl. I knew this message board might help with something. I stopped taking Effexor about nine days ago. Awful symptoms still. Have you tried the dramimine or benadryl yourself? I have no bouts with trying this. But I'm on Adderall now for ADD (something I should have been diagnosed with fromt he beginning). Benadryl seems pretty inocuous though. I doubt that it would affect the Adderall too much. Hmmmm. Thanks for the tip!
