I took my last dose of Effexor 5 days ago (I've been trying to quit since January, when I was at 150mg/day--this has taken forever!).
The dizziness and nausea are starting to taper off (I think), but the brain zaps are getting worse--extremely uncomfortable making it very difficult to concentrate and stay focused--and I ache all over (is that common?). Also, I feel kind of like I have severe PMS: my emotions have been all over the place.
Does anyone have any remedies for withdrawal symptoms? I'll take any suggestions anyone has: other prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins and natural remedies. I just want these symptoms to stop!
