[Epherdream]

I am on my 5th day cold turkey getting off effexor 75mg after 8 years...Before did this i consulted my dr and told her the method which i was choosing to get off..she was in full support been on them 10 years.Some of the stories on here are so similar..And hope too.

i am on day 18 cold turkey no effexor..problem i am having is trying to eat solids now..Head zaps havent gone yet but i have noticed between 3pm to 8pm they seem to happen. slight anxiety attacks also
Feeling better as each day goes.My doctor is a ton of support and has monitored my progress also...Yes i can see some Sunshine!!!

Try a healthy dose of fish oil every day for the brain zaps.  Seems to help on every withdrawal site I've been on.
