Greetings CrazyMe :-)
Reading your post I couldn't help but think that you sound alot like me...except that I'm over 2 weeks off of Effexor and feeling pretty great physically. Shocks, dizziness, nausea, hot flashes, other flu like symptoms...all gone. Well, honestly the shocks still happen very mildly when I'm over tired but they are really very mild. You will get past this point and be all the stronger for it.
Don't know if this helps you much, but consider yourself virtually hugged...getting off this drug was one of the toughest things I've ever gone through and finding this board and realizing that others were going through or had already gone through the same thing made a world of difference for me.
Take care of yourself...it sounds like you're trying hard to do that, so stick with it!
-Bliss
