Are you self-medicating? 3 weeks only to get to 150mg, no wonder you felt like sh**. If a doctor made you do that, he needs to learn about Effexor XR. You were way to high way too fast in my opinion. And stopping an AD cold turkey is no better. You could have been very sick and with some ADs, it can even be lethal. Why are you playing with your health this way? I hope it's the depression making you take irrational risks like that, and I hope you'll know better in the future.
