In reply to Re: Effexor Withdrawl Symptoms, posted by nihil on July 28, 2003, at 0:24:07
I've experienced major withdrawl symptoms with both Effexor XR and Effexor. The difference: with Effexor, the symptoms were less severe and had more to do with mental cloudiness. However with Effexor XR, the symptoms were more pronounced and included nausea as well as extreme mood swings. My emotions were just all over the place. With both though, the symptoms lasted two to three weeks.
> I've been on 300mg of Effexor XR for a little over a year and just stopped taking them about 3 days ago. So far I've experienced shaking, dizziness, my mind races at night when trying to sleep, and my emotions are all messed up. Also been hearing things like knocking when I move suddenly but don't know if that's related or not. Any information on how long the withdrawls last and ways to help them would be greatly appreciated.
