I promise that you are not dying. It is the same thing that happened to me. It is withdrawal from the Effexor. If anything terrible should happen to anyone, it should happen to the makers of Effexor. The doctors don't realize how sick we have been. It starts to get better, but you won't make any friends along the way. Get some Benadryl, even a very small dose works. Read all these posts if you can. I've got to get dressed and out.
Hang in there!!! You will live, your stomach may not. Eat light foods, you won't keep them in anyway, but keep eating and take vitamins. Read, read, read so you know what to do. If some doctor really knows how to get us through this, I wish they would chime in...maybe a true detox person could help. I had a massage yesterday, and it helped. Lots and lots and lots of water, and all the other supplements are really helpful, too. Maybe I should find an NA meeting. Those folks could help, I'll bet. The first month is the worst.
