In reply to Re: Day 55 of Effexor withdrawal symptoms-my experienc, posted by metro8268 on March 13, 2004, at 10:09:19
I am in the process of getting of effexor and never thought it could make me so sick. I am dizzy, sick to my stomach, diarrea, sweats, jitters, shakes, chills, hot flashes, massive crying meltdowns, body aches, head aches and the list can go on. This is horrible and I was suppose to go onto Wellbutrin and did 2 pills for 2 days and I have just decided that I will not take anymore of these anti depressants if I can help it. Going off of Celexa and Zoloft was a walk in the park. Going off Effexor is a walk in HELL! It scares me to think what these drugs do to your brain and body if these are the withdrawal symptoms. I pray I can just suck it up and keep off of these pills. Best to all of you that are going through what I am. I have had the past 2 weekends off from grad school and am so darn sick that I cannot function. Thank god my mom is here to help me out and take care of my dogs. Best to all. And thanks for this website - I thought I had something terminal or was losing my mind!
