I have just gotten off of Venlafaxine. Anyone else?

Hello @mbryan . I am currently tapering off of this medication and having some unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. My pharmacist recently told me that of all the antidepressants, this one is one of the most difficult to get off. I do not know how long you have been on the medication, but I have been on it for 10 years at a dose of 150 mg. I had to stop taking it because it began to cause severe eye pain, among other things. A long answer to your short question. Good luck.

Ah, I was only on it for 18 months, but I wanted to see if any withdrawal symptoms related. Thank you for your response. I hope that you are doing well!
