OK, so it's been a few weeks now since I've stopped taking Effexor. Am I now going to have these vivid dreams forever?

I had them for a little while after I stopped taking it, but they did go away after a bit.

I had terrible nightmares when I first started taking Effexor. They lasted for about a week to ten days as wee were titrating up in doseage.
Logic would dictate that when coming back off Effexor that the changes ocurring in brain chemistry would cause nightmares for about the same time period. Not encouraging, but logical
Spock out.

I've forgotten my Effexor when travelling and couldn't take them for a weekend ... I had terrible nightmares ... even worse than the ones I got starting it.
Although they could have been exacerbated by the whole going "cold turkey" issue.
