For eight years I've been on Effexor. I had Stress and Anxiety so badly because of a new job that I kept passing out. A few months ago I decided I didn't want to be on the medication anymore because the medicine begin not to work as well, and the last time that happened my doctor up the dose.  I wasn't going to go any higher than 75 milligrams. I have slowly been taking pellets out of the capsules  since the summer months. For the last 2 weeks I've been barely taking any medicine at all and I feel okay. 2 days ago I stopped taking it all together thinking it wouldn't be a big deal.

Omg... I'm hot and then I'm cold. My ears are ringing so badly I can barely hear the television. My whole body feels like I'm being electrocuted, especially my hands. I have a persistent slight headache. How long am I going to feel like this?
