Hi. I think maybe you reduced it too much. You might want to bring it up again. You can taper every week in small amounts rather than large amounts over a longer period. It ends up being the same in terms of time, but it's gentler on your system.

> Hi there. On Saturday I began cutting my Effexor dose in half. Instead of 150mg, I am taking 75mg. I called in sick yesterday to work, but I'm at work right now, and I'm feeling worse today than yesterday. I plan to be on this dose for a month and then taper again or go off completely. What I'm wondering is how long the withdrawal symptoms are.... I'm super-shaky, nauseous, going from too hot to shaking because I'm so cold. Should I expect to miss any more work? How are all you guys doing? And what are you doing to keep your mind off how awful you feel? Man, I feel like crap!
