Trying to get off Effexor and having a hard time

Posted by jealmy on May 7, 2003, at 18:26:16

I'm currently taking Effexor XR 75mg. I've been on it for almost 2 years. I tried to get off it last year but the withdrawl was awful. It's hard for me to describe the dizziness I had but it was nothing like any dizziness I had ever had before. It was like a woosh woosh in my head. I also had headaches and nausea. I want to get off it now but I don't know how to do it without having those awful withdrawl symptoms. I even tried tapering off when I did it last year but I still had withdrawl. Another thing that I had was really bad anxiety after stopping it. Almost like panic attack. I really want to get off it but don't know what to do. HELP!
