Quitting Effexor

Posted by AmandaEffexorScks on August 9, 2005, at 23:41:39

Hi,
I took my last Effexor Friday, August 5th. I needed to quit because of insurance/money issues. I began to feel the withdrawal symptoms starting Sunday afternoon. They have steadily worsened and here I am Tuesday evening. I guess this is only day 4 but it feels like YEAR 4.
I'm feeling like I can do this. My kids will be with their dad until Sunday so I can lie in bed for the next 5 days without foregoing my parenting duties.
Can anybody give me some insight on when these BRUTAL symptoms will start to taper? I'm experiencing brain shivers, sweating, nightmares, insomnia, etc. I guess the usual.
If somebody could just throw something positive and encouraging my way right now, it would mean a lot and give me strength to continue.
Amanda
