I've been on Effexor XR for 3 years. 150mg daily. It has been a miracle drug for me, although the side effects seem to be getting worse and I have to keep "upping" the dose. I tried to get off it a year ago, (weaning of course), and I was an absolute mess. I had nightmares, not just nightmares but night terrors. I was just a complete and utter mess, my family begged me to get back on it. It was almost like narcotic withdrawl I would think. Has anyone successfully come off of it other than this gradual weaning and withdrawl?
