> I am new to this board and I'm wondering has anyone suffered the withdrawl effects from being on only 37.5
>I was not on the XR formulation, but experienced HORRENDOUS withdrawal going off *much* less than the 37.5. The last time I went off the stuff, I was taking half-tablets and had to taper down to dust, and still felt pretty rotten.
Despite hellish withdrawals TWICE in which I had no idea what was going on, I've gone back on Effexor a few times. When it's combined with an SSRI in the right amounts, I come pretty close to feeling ... normal. Effexor also eliminates the klutzy thing I have, which I'd never related to my depression.
