> I have reading about withdrawal from antidepressants with interest. I have a related question:I recently switched from Prozac/Wellbutrin(in combination)to Effexor. I have felt spacey,dizzy,wired ever since. The doc I see for med checks says that shouldn't be a side-effect. I have never experienced anything like this before.I tell him it's like I want to "shake my head" to clear it out. I want to get off it because I'm sure these side-effects are directly a result of effexor(taking 150 mg. down from 225 with no reduction in symptoms).Has anyone else experienced the "spacey" feeling while taking the drug??Thanks!
THE REASON I GOT OFF OF EFFEXOR WAS THE "SPACEY" FEELING I HAD, ESPECIALLY IF I MISSED A DOSE AND TOOK IT LATER IN THE DAY! I AM ON DAY THREE OF BEING DRUG FREE AND IT IS TERRIBLE!!! TALK ABOUT BEING SPACEY!!! I AM GOING ON WELLBUTRIN NEXT I THINK, ANY SUGGESTIONS? KARIN C.
