I can completely empathize with you - it took me a little over six months to get off of Effexor, and that entire time was pure hell. Now, from my position of healthy distance from the drug, I can laugh and ask "what else should I have expected from the makers of Norplant and Phen-phen?" ;)
Hang in there, you're not alone. I've talked to numerous folks who have had difficulty getting off Effexor. (And numerous more who have been able to quit without incident.)
See my other post for more details:
