In reply to withdrawls from effexor, posted by Princess on October 9, 2002, at 1:06:01
I'm glad you're feeling better off of Effexor, and sorry that you had a rough few days of withdrawal. However, you discontinued Effexor way to fast. With most antidepressants you should only reduce your dosage by 25% or so a week. I've discontinued a number of antidepressants and never had any withdrawal symptoms.
I also wanted to note that even though you feel much better not taking an antidepressant, there are a lot of people who couldn't live without them.
Continue feeling better,
Britt
