I am being titrated down off Effexor 37.5 mg. The withdrawals are terrible. The lightening bolts through out my head and body are awful. I was sleeping too much that is the reason to get off, now my sleep patterns are all messed up. I really thought I was dying until I read some of the feedback of others that have had these experiences. My question is how long does these withdrawal symptoms last? I need to get back to work! I can (hopefully) cope with this if I know what to expect. I hate surprises! Some of the information does not go into detail...especially about the awful lightening bolts.

Welcome! And sorry if it's confusing here, but I'd like to redirect this thread to Psycho-Babble Withdrawal. Here's a link:
