This is the first time that I have taken any medication for anxiety and depression...The reason for taking effexor xr was so I would calm down and start eating and sleeping. I know with sleepand a rested mind I wont dwell on a broken relationship as much, and eating will not give me the gut rot feeling to sit at home and wither away...After 6 days of taking effexor I am finally eating and getting about 4 hours sleep anight, still obsessing alot. My guestion is : will i go through a bad withdrawl if I were to stop taking it now or say in 14 more days ?? By then I hope I have gotten back on track with eating,sleeping , and setting up support to help me go through this heartbreak time. I would just like to say I take it in the morning now with food and that seems to help me start to get to sleep earlier with wake up times through the night.I weight 175lbs now, I am male and 46 years old, and lately a cry baby...
Thankyou
Robin
