I'm now reducing to 25mg effexor(venlafaxine), and still taking the P5P and zinc picolinate. Yesterday I was feeling mildly dizzy/woozy which I didn't really notice when busily doing projects around the house. My mood is still fairly even and pleasant. I am experiencing less anxiety. This is all complicate by a down-sizing move from a large house (3500sq ft) to one much smaller - huge life change. I have an overall feeling of being out-of-balance that I attribute to this move (we've been in our new house for one month). I don't suppose this is particularly meaningful to anyone, but there you have it.

@mjfisch you like me are tapering during an already stressful time in our lives so expect things not to go as smoothly as we deal with the lessening dose and the new events in our lives. I am tapering during a lupus flare and a tick borne disease which caused me to total my car and have a hospital stay, all of which have driven me crazy. I ask myself : is it the tapering ? Is it the lower dose Med I'm not doing well on (inactive ingredients ?) or is it my medical conditions? Pick and choose for the answer because no one has it, least of all me!!!
