Well just hang in there - as I had said in an earlier post you really should talk to your doctor about adding prozac or similar to smooth the decline. Wont make what your feeling go away, but I can tell you from expereince that this WAS the key for me. Im actually kind of surprised that with all the bad press on effexor withdrawl that there isnt some 'best practice' method recommended for stopping. The titrating method of course works, but the cost in pain and suffering is immeasurable. In fact I would be willing to bet you that one of these drug companies will come up with a pill specifically designed to aid in the withdrawl off effexor and some of the other really bad ones like paxil etc. If they do, buy stock in that company and we'll both retire very rich. That said, chin up - it'll pass. What I found was not a gradual decline in withdrawl symptoms every day, but rather no improvement for a few days and then a very noticeable change. Then that continued for a few days with no improvement and then again a noticeable change....that type of thing. Good luck and keep posting on progress.
