I too have experienced similar withdrawl symptoms: eyes catching up with my head as it scans the room, brain freezes (like when smoking marijuana), and a general feeling of tiredness. Intercostal tension (muscle pains in my chest muscles) returned within 2 days of being off Effexor. This is the only site where I was able to find someone that reported similar side affects. I am surprised these side affects haven't been public knowledge or at least explained to patients prior to administering treatment. I wonder how long these withdrawl symptoms would last before one would return to a normal state. Have you heard any information on this?
