I have been on Effexor XR since May 2007. I started out with lowest dose 37.5mg and then was increased to 75mg in June or July. Since then I have been experiencing weird dreams (vivid), fits of anger, compulsive behavior, suicidal thoughts and tendencies. I have asked my doc to take me off the meds because I don't like who I have become on them. But all they did was increase my med dosage to 150mg. I want to just stop taking it all together but am afraid of the withdraw symptoms if not slowly taken off of it. What should I do?? I would not recommend this antidepressant to anyone!!!
It's a hard med to come off of,for me at least. I've tried a couple times on my own,and with being weaned from it(by Dr.)
I have been diagnosed with Bipolar about 6 yrs. ago.
I'd like to stop myself but the withdrawels are really bad for me. My head felt foggy,crying,bad brain zaps, floor bounces when walking.
Good luck to you...
