This is day 4 for me and I am feeling pretty good. My balance is off today a little bit; vertigo and feeling kinda anxious. I sleep great, crazy dreams but I have also had those even before I was on this medication. I have high blood pressure but also have learned that Effexor will increase your blood pressure too. I am hoping for a pill free 2013. I was having hot flashes due to menopause so this medication also created more of that hot feeling!!!!
I know these withdraws will go away soon. I did read a post about Kava Kava so I am going to purchase that next week if I am still feeling a little off.
But so far so good and I AM NOT GOING BACK ON THIS!!!! Exercise is the best medicine by far to help fight depression and I will beat this!!
I have been off of my 75 mg for 4 days feeling pretty good kinda dizzy today but no nausea at all. Sleep great too. Stay strong!! This medication is very bad for our systems!!! Good Luck!View Thread
