Hook, I've found through several trials that the 3rd day of decreasing Effexor XR is the one that is the worst.
Why don't you dump out 1/2 of the 37.5 XR beads and take just 19 mg per day? Do that for a couple weeks, then every other day, and you may be off in a month! Good luck. I know exactly how you feel (I think).

> I have been on Effexor for a year and am down to 37.5 mg every other day. <snip> After two days of not taking the Effexor I have to take it again, because what I believe are brain zaps, won't subside unless I take the Effexor. If I suck it up, and don't take the Effexor, will they get worse but eventually get better? How long does it take them to eventually go away?
