I have a post that describes my recent discontinuation of effexor xr which I was taking for years. I have been totally off now from 300mg a day to zero. I am sure most of you reading this have heard of the brain zaps, and the awkward dizziness which accompany the withdrawal of this medication. I have treid dramamine which actually really helps, but was wondering if anyone has any alternative solutins for these symptons. Thanx yall
