In reply to Re: Effexsor withdrawal: DIZZYNESS!, posted by Sad Panda on July 2, 2004, at 9:24:19
Hey Folks,
I just called my psychiatrist this morning about the dizziness because it was getting way too intense and she recommended taking only 10 beads from a capsule and said that should take care of the withdrawal symptoms immediately. She also said that if that didn't work, taking prozac for three weeks would work, like Panda said. So I broke open a capsule, took only 10 little beads and thought no way would this miniscule amount do anything and--low and behold! I swear to god within 1 hour--I felt 85-90% better. Virtually no more dizziness. It was amazing! So---highly recommended! She said to do this for the next three weeks until I was totally weaned off, etc. Incredible, huh? Oh and to the guy who said on or off Effexor he experienced dizziness--interesting. I never experienced any dizziness or side effects at all from taking the drug. Well, I did gain about 35 pounds which I ABOLUTELY HATE! I'm HOPING that my svelt figure will return after I'm off. Hah! :)
