In reply to Help for Effexor Withdrawal?, posted by resisting on July 10, 2006, at 22:07:56
When you say you have been trying to stop since Jan does that mean you have been weaning off since Jan? Your withdrawal symtems sound classic and I can only speak for myself so here goes. I had 20mg Prozac to wean off with and it helped immensely. Minimal nausea etc. I also got advice from this site to try Omega-3 and did that too and think it also helped. I have been completely off the Effexor for 1 week now and doing really well. I am weaning off the Prozac to hopefully nothing within the next 2 weeks. Read some of the past posts and see if they help you too and hang in there and drink plenty of water to flush the system out and take care of yourself in other ways too such as eating right etc. It all helps. Keep in touch on how it is going for you.
