I have been off effexor xr for a whole week. Have gradually wheened down, had been on it for 7 months ranging (with Dr supervision) from 37.5mg a day to 150mg. I am seeing a clin psych and it is really helping me. My weight has increased 15kg, and am fed up with the catch 22 depression, back pain, weight gain increased back pain, low self esteem, depression. I've opted to come off and try some natural remedies with continued psych sessions. I am experiencing nausea, head spin current things, body shakes, tremors, anxiety, nervousness, sleeplessness. I also feel agitated and quite uneasy? All horrid side effects going on it too! How long do the withdrawals take to go away completey? The brain tremor electric current things are awful...really don't want to go on again, but horrid coming off too. Thanks :)
