A solid one week into 75 to 37.5. I feel better. I typically experience a few days of “withdrawal” upon dosage reduction, but it clears up and I move on. I’m very afraid of the last 37.5 but in concert with removing Effexor I have taken up meditation, I’m in therapy, I’m getting back into exercise including yoga, I can eat right when motivated, and two huge stressors (brought to me by paxil I ggeorize) are largely gone from my life. I feel confident I can beat this thing.

Good for you! I beat Effexor by counting beads. I stopped cold at 15 mg. A little tough, but doable.

Sounds like all your ducks are in a row. Great work
