GOING ON THREE WEEKS, WITHDRAWAL EFFECTS STILL GOING STRONG!!!!! THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS!! I don't think I would ever go back on this drug unless I planned to stay on it life-long.
I am experiencing three weeks straight of constant vertigo/dizziness, brain freezes, and an utter feeling of an unpleasant high. When I move my eyes, I hear a WHOOSH sound in my head. If I move my body, it sounds like someone is throwing magazines at the floor. I don't feel safe driving and I keep waiting for this to go away but it just seems to continue to progress. I did taper my medication, which only seemed to prolong the effects withdrawal. If anyone does have to get off Effexor, follow the explanation Maisy gave. I think I would have followed a more gradual approach to tapering if I knew it was going to be anything like this. This is just miserable.
