Effexor Withdrawal

Friends: I'm trying to withdraw from Efferor---225 mg but I'm having dizziness--stopped it 2 days ago because of headaches. Seeing my doc tomorrow. Has anyone had similar experiences?

Coming off of these medications can have some side effects.  How long were you on it and hopefully you did not decide to quit cold turkey...you are doing the right thing by going to see the doctor.  Also, remember, many times it can take awhile for your body to get adjusted to the meds sometimes...it also can be a little trial and error before you find the right one for you...keep us posted!
