I went off 150mg of Effexor in January. I had NO withdrawal symptoms because I used a Prozac bridge. I gradually switched to Prozac until I was only on Prozac. Then going off of Prozac was very easy. I have no idea why this isn't recommended to everyone going off Effexor? Ridiculous. You do not have to suffer.

@sallyo420 hi I have just been reading about this method! I am suffering skin burning from stopping Mirtazipine got down to 3.75 mg probably too quickly but had only been on 3 months / my GP just said might as well stop them now at that dose - didn’t offer alternative.
