Hello, I'm new to this site and want to pick anyone out there's brains about withdrawl from Venlafaxine.
I have been on this drug on and off_more on than off- for about 9 years, the couple of times I have weaned off it before I have had some withdrawl symptoms but nothing like I am experiencing this time.
I have reduced my dose from 225mg down to nothing, taking about 8 weeks to do so and reducing in very small amounts untill I was taking just two half 37.5mg tablets twice daily and then just one half tablet once daily.
I finally had my last half tablet last Friday and the feelings of dizzyness, disorientation, tingling and nausea have been really bad.
My question is...how much longer can I expect these symptoms to go on for, has anybody out there had similar experiences and if so how long did yours last???
Here's hoping someone can help.xx
P.S. Mood wise I'm feeling ok
