Effexor withdrawal while pregnant-help!

Posted by KBW on February 28, 2006, at 2:15:04

Hi! I suspected I was pregnant a few days ago, and while waiting for results, took the chance at going off Effexor XR cold-turkey to be safe. I am in fact pregnant and we are thrilled but I am suffering horribly-can't sleep, am hyper-sensitive to anything sensory, twitch constantly, have trouble focusing and seeing clearly... so many other things-I could go on & on. The worst is that my body is going through so much, yet I can't get but 20-30 minutes of rest at a time.Can anyone give me any info about whether or not this will go away? Has anyone had a similar experience? My highly regarded neurologist said flat out-get off of it and stay off-my only question now is if anyone knows any way to minimize symptoms or give me a glimmer of hope that this won't last nine months.

Welcome, and congratulations! And sorry if it's confusing here, but I'd like to redirect this thread to Psycho-Babble Withdrawal. Here's a link:
