Just wondering if anyone out there has gone through the Effexor withdrawal and experienced some depression as a part of the withdrawal. I've been off of the drug for about 3 days now. The "brain shivers" have subsided a bit, but now I'm feeling depressed. I don't know if this is my depression coming back, or one of the fun withdrawal symptoms from quitting (I tapered them off, not cold turkey). My Dr. said that I would feel a little down after quitting and to give it like 3 weeks.
I just need some more encouragement that this is normal. :)
Thanks,
Wendy
