I was on 300 mgs. of effexor for a year, my pdoc recently took me off of it (because it wasn't helping me) first reduced to 150 mgs. for a week, 75 mgs. a week, and finally 37.5 mgs. for a week, and i have been completely off of it for about a week...i had no withdrawal symptoms throughout this whole process. I'm not bringing this up to brag, i just want to point out that everyone is different, just because some people have a horrible time getting off of effexor (or any drug) doesn't mean you will have the same problem(s).
