I went off Effexor XR within two days...I was on the highest dose and needed to get on Paxil asap (in my mind). I actually felt better coming off of the Effexor because being *on* it was affecting me in such a strange way. I was becoming increasingly hypomanic and would rarely eat on effexor. A quite dangerous combination!
Anyway, it went well and Paxil has worked much better for me.
Good luck. I would go slow but not freak out too much about it. I think having some sort of benzo. helps, also ibruprofen or something for headache if needed.
