What you are experiencing is normal withdrawal. Should you choose to continue, keep in mind that these will continue for a while - mine lasted a few weeks, with each day lessening somewhat. I feel SO MUCH BETTER now that I am not taking Effexor. Thankfully, I didn't need anything else after withdrawal - make sure you and your doctor keep close tabs on you to see whether you do or not. I've said in the past and I'll say in the future, this drug is bad news, and patients are not warned about it. If they were, tho, no one would touch it, and the powers that be know this. Hang in there. I wish you the best!!
