I've been reading this message board for a while now, and this is my first post. I was on Effexor XR for a very short time (three weeks) and couldn't stand the side effects of even pathetically low dosages (37.5 and 75 mg/day), so I quit that cold turkey. I had withdrawal symptoms for a few days, like severe transient depressed moods and anxiety, brain shivers and whatnot, but that's mostly subsided. However, I was also on Dexedrine 20mg/day for the past month or so, and I quit that the same day I quit the Effexor, about three days ago. To put it succinctly, I'm tired. Very, VERY tired. All day long, and it's a horrible thing. I just wanted to know if anyone knew if this was a symptom of dexedrine withdrawal, effexor withdrawal, or if this is just the way I am now. If it is, I don't know if I can stand it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
