I second that, please go slow, withdrawal on day 5-8 were bad for me. I’m still Effexor free, it will be 2 weeks tomorrow, but I had to add Prozac 20mg to get me through it. Still having withdrawals, but is getting better. Anxiety is what I feel mostly now, not sick to my stomach or dizzy with brain zaps any longer. I’m still very tired and no interest in anything, but I can tell I’m getting climbing out of this hole. You will not make it if you do not go slow. This was my second attempt after stopping cold turkey the first time and thought I was going to die! Please taper slowly, you will have less withdrawal and will be safer on your body. Good luck, prayers for you.
