@merpreb I never had anxiety, or akathisia until I was well off Effexor. I experienced Serotonin Syndrome twice while on Effexor--didn't know that was what I had until I started researching getting off Effexor after I tapered off and had withdrawal issues--both times it was caused by drugs interacting with my Effexor DESPITE my having told both my PCP and reconstruction surgeon that I was on Effexor (I think they dismissed my Effexor use as something to consider as I was only on 25mg, but it occurred even at this low dose of Effexor).

I am taking the supplements 3 times per day (was taking these supplements 4 to 5 times a day depending on the length of my day) and will eliminate the evening dose soon while spacing the other two further apart.

The vertigo isn't a problem very often and I've only had it since getting off Effexor and having withdrawal issues. Dram*mine usually takes care of it.
