Hi, I'm in the process of tapering off myself right now. I'm coming from 150 mg of Effexor and I went down to 75 mg. I had a horrible time for 3 days and I added the 37.5 mg for a total of 112.5 mg. This really helped and I plan on staying her for a week or two before I head down to 75 mg and then to 37.5 mg and then off.
If I didn't taper I believe the pain, nausea and feeling that I wanted to be out of my skin would be too overwhelming.
My attitude is great and I feel no depression sneaking into the picture. Good luck.
