I am being titrated down off Effexor 37.5 mg. The withdrawals are terrible. The lightening bolts through out my head and body are awful. I was sleeping too much that is the reason to get off, now my sleep patterns are all messed up. I really thought I was dying until I read some of the feedback of others that have had these experiences. My question is how long does these withdrawal symptoms last? I need to get back to work! I can (hopefully) cope with this if I know what to expect. I hate surprises! Some of the information does not go into detail...especially about the awful lightening bolts.
