> I just got past my first week of droping from 225 to 150 and today started at 75mg. The first couple of days was pure sea sickness and was only helped by Dramamine. Today feels ok so far but you know how that goes it is still early! Danny
Hey Danny!Sounds like you are doing okay. Glad to hear that the Dramamine helped.
I, too, have dropped from 225 to 150 mg. Didn't really have any side effects. Perhaps, as I thought, I was "over" medicated. I had braced myself for some withdrawal symptoms but I feel fine. My Dr. did not want to add Wellbutrin, so I just stopped taking that extra pill.
The therapy that that I have been getting and working with has helped me tremendously! With therapy, Effexor and this board, I am doing okay and am in a calm, focused place. -TinMan
