I think you would be better off either taking very small amounts of Effexor twice a day or quit it all together. I believe you are just protracting your withdrawal syndrome and suffering unnecessarily.
Some people have suggested taking Benadryl (diphenhydramine) to mitigate the severity of the withdrawal symptoms. I never tried it myself.
