replying to @graciepeanut521 . I too am tapering off of this medication, and in all honesty, feel horrible. I am feeling more on edge than normal, irritated, angry(and I am not an angry person by nature) and very anxious, or rather more anxious than usual. As far as feeling "full" do you mean when you are eating? I do not have much of an appetite because of my liver/pancreas disease, so I am not having this symptom you described. I will see my neurologist tomorrow to discuss these symptoms among other things, and inquire if he can give me something other than what I have so that I can relax a bit more easily.
Good luck and hang in there. We can do this.

The “feeling full” was in response to the original post. I myself do not have an appetite while withdrawing. It’s been about 3 weeks since I lowered my dose of Effexor and my appetite is slowly coming back, but for a while I could not eat at all.
