In reply to Re: How long does withdrawal from Effexor last?, posted by Nevina on June 24, 2004, at 11:03:23
Ahhhh, just realized first post did not go through. So I will rewrite it.
Am currently experiencing withdrawal from effexor after overdose. On June 14th took overdose. Prior to that was taking 150mg effexor daily and 15mg Remeron.(which by the way work well together)
Have takien nothing since except a couple doses of ativan while in hospital and 2.5mg Valium 1-2 times daily as needed. Have been experiencing constant headaches, nausea,dizziness, periods of severe agitation,terfullness. Jitteryiness. Emotional controls poor. Poor concentration, varying appetite... mostly high. +++ fatigue. Now diarrhea.
However it is now June 24th and symptoms are improving. Emotional outbursts down to 1-2 times /day. Have been avoiding taking valium. Taking benedryl at night for sleep. Dreams not so bad as previously. Have hope that by end of next week may no longer have any drug related symptoms.
