Please call your doctor and ask for advice. You can not do this cold turkey without messing you up

My Dr is the one that gave me this schedule to taper off. I just didn't ask her how long I can expect these symptoms to last. I just started having them 3 days ago so I haven't called due to the long weekend. I don't want to take a pill to make symptoms go away if it's something I'm already half way through.

I agree completely. Effexor is not a cold turkey drug.
