In reply to Effexor Withdrawal Chronicles, posted by Seagull_25920 on April 18, 2004, at 11:17:01
I appreciated the "Chronicle" as I too have been having a terrible time getting off Effexor. I would rather be depressed at this point!
Dizziness is my most predominant symptom of withdrawal and a worsening of my (binge?) eating of sweet things. Anyone else had this? People talk about gaining weight but not strange eating.
I got down to granules , and feel I need to "tough it out" by not opening another pill. I don't want to prolong things, but then again don't want to do any damage by not going slowly enough, but don't want to refill the 'script. I haven't contacted my Dr, but will share with her the down side of effexor when I see her.Feedback please on "toughing it out from here and craving, and consuming, sweets.
Thanks, sally
