In reply to How long for these withdrawals to end??, posted by Mina on April 8, 2004, at 23:18:27
I'm on day 7 of 150 mg daily effexor xr cold turkey and now that I know that my withdrawal systems are not so unusual, my fears have subsided and my brain feels more like an untuned engine misfiring every now and then rather than an outta control locomotive.. I still eat too many carbs and junk food, especially at night and my wife looks at me like I'm crazy since I told her I wanted a divorce about 5 days ago. My gut tells me that once the withdrawal symptoms began, long buried resentments flew to the surface and spewed out. I lay low now in the basement when marital relations get ugly. Long buried sadness creeps up too and gets me misty eyed. Letting the tears flow without just cause for a man creates the appearance that something is wrong with this guy.. Hang tough Mina. Like they said in the movie 'the water boy' you can do it!
