I took effexor 150mg/day for 9 months, and tapered it over 9 days with only minor withdrawls..... got a script for the 37.5mg XR caps, took 3 a day for 3 days, 2 a day for 3 days, and 1 a day for 3 days.
Having a few tabs of a benzodiazepine (Valium, Ativan, Xanax) on hand can be helpful, if you feel bad one pill will help reduce anxiety and stop the wirhdrawl symptoms for a while.
