This is my first time posting on this site, and I must say I have never felt so much relief to know that I am not alone in the symptoms I am feeling.
I have been on 150mg of Effexor XR for about 2 years. Due to a surprise pregancy, my
Doctor and I decided that it would be in my best interest to try and get off of it. I am not on any other drug.I first for about 3 weeks was taking my 150 mg every other day. We then switched to 37.5 for ten days and I am now into my 3rd day of nothing.
I cannot express the hell I have been going through for the last month. My reasons for going on it in the first place are so mute right now. I am going insane. The mood swings, electrical impulses in my body, insane thoughts.. I just don't know how much more I can take.
I need some hope. My husband and children are afraid of me. I can't work, read, or even leave the house.
Please can you help me and tell me how much longer this is going to go on.
Thanking you in advance for any help.
