[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 417838, member: 1233"] I have had effexor withdrawal too and it was maybe 2/3 of this. really really nasty. FYI if you know anyone who has to stop taking effexor for any reason, have them take 1 prozac (20mg) every 2 or 3 days for a week or two, then 1 ever 4-5 days for a week or two, and so on until they are better (often about 6 weeks total. One of hte huge problems with effexor is that it clears your body so fast that you can get withdrawal even thirty min past a missed dose. Prozac stays in your system for at least a week, is dirt cheap, and will smooth out most of the effexor with-d. My doctor scoffed at me until her son had to stop taking it. I happened to have an appointment and she asked if I was the one she talked it over with before. Not a lot of docs will believe this because many don't believe you can get withdrawal from SSRI/SNRI medications. [/QUOTE]
