Good for you! I am in the process of reading/ researching all the posts regarding weaning off Effexor. Forgive me if I missed your thread on who helped with the taper. Could a moderator plz guide me ?

Be aware that being on Effexor means that going off is a very slow and panic attack process. Don’t use it lightly. I have my wean schedule set up for years worth of small mg wean over 30 days at a time. I tried too fast and it was the worst feeling I have ever had. It also took 2 weeks to feel ok enough after going back on it to even think of weaning.
