Hi James,
Thanks for your concern. I had been on EffexorXR for a few months (no higher than 75mg/day) and have now been off it *only* a few days, but so far NOTHING in the way of withdrawal symptoms. I think that tapering so slowly (I was at 37.5mg a day for weeks!) helped. I was worried about just stopping it without adding some other SSRI, but my pdoc said I was at such a low dose for such a long time that it would be okay to just stop.
Thanks again for your concern.
