I for one had little electric shock feelings that took a while to go away. Not unpleasant, just weird. Make sure you GO SLOW in any case. Good luck. It can be done.

Most say go off slowly, my doc said go cold turkey and suffer same but for lesser amount...talk to your doc about this...it can be done...but Effexor is one of the harder AD's to get off, I've been there....
good luck
