Mary:
I posted this on the other thread, but Dr. Bob redirected it here, so you may not have seen it.
SLS is 100% right: you need to take the Prozac WHILE TAPERING OFF the Effexor. Also, take Benedryl to help with the spacy feeling and brain zaps. Generic Benedryl is okay, one tablet every 4-6 hours.
I tapered off Effexor for 10 days with Prozac before I was on Prozac alone. I'm still on Prozac for now...
Blessings!
Tony
