Tips on minimizing withdrawal symptoms from Effexor (aka Venlafaxine)
Depression & Anxiety | Last Active: 11 hours ago | Replies (6411)Comment receiving replies
Every day I just make it a priority to take care of myself. I am scheduling nothing so that I can take it as it comes. I just lost a very good friend because I backed out of a plan we had made to get together. I don't bother to explain as it is not something that anyone will understand easily. Even my children are unaware of what is going on with me. I am way too tired to explain.

Congrats on your determination to come off Effexor.
I can understand why you don't want to announce what you are doing.
However, I personally think it is important to tell someone, even your child.
You want someone to be aware of what you are doing just in case the person see something strange about you.
Again, it is just my opinion.

I agree and am glad you’re handling it. I think The experiences and conditions related to this are difficult for others to really understand. People often have their own problems and proliorities in front of them so understanding, let alone trying to take on, the burden of another is incomplete at best.
