Yup, the nausea and other symptoms sound like withdrawal to me.
CBD will cut the nausea. And help the withdrawal symptoms. Anxiety, fear depression....
.
I can't tell you how to cut down cuz I went cold turkey...hard headed, dangerous way to get off the Effexor but I didn't find this site until months after my last dose.
Do not do what I did!!!!
Count the beads inside to reduce your intake of Effexor.
Get to reading here, no need to reinvent the wheel. Then see what you identify with and take that route. Trust your gut...
Peace to you, Bright Wings

I’m still on low dose Effexor and Klonopin but CBD does not seem to be helping me. I take 1/2 dropper twice a day. I want to transition off the meds and onto CBD oil.
By the way, I’m a grandma too of 4 wonderful teenagers. I’m 75 years old. Lost my daughter to ovarian cancer 2 1:2 years ago thus the meds. 3 of my grandchildren are her children left with a single dad.
Then I lost my dog Rascal to cancer in October and, thus, my name here! It’s been rough!
