I basically purged from herbal supplements for 2-3 weeks. I have resumed several but only 1/3 to 1/2 of what I’d been taking. I had already been cutting back on the amount of caffeine I was drinking which wasn’t all that much any how. I’m down to two or 3 6oz cups of 50-50 blend coffee in the morning. I will drink a little bit of coffee sometimes in the afternoon if I get fatigued and will drink maybe a half of a ZippFizz. I’d like to note
that I don’t need near as many naps as I used to and instead of having to take a one hour to 1 1/2 hour nap usually it’ll just be a 20 minute power nap in the afternoon. I’m cooking more and eating a little less sugar. I’m a drinker so I’m still consuming alcohol in the evenings with my wife, mainly as we sit outside a campfire in our backyard. It’s very relaxing. I hope I didn’t mislead you as I’m only into my 4th or so week without .0375 mg Venlafaxine. Today seems like it could’ve been my best day although I’m still a little bit lethargic but I have not been experiencing any noticeable dizziness in my “radio”which seem to be off-center, seems to be better now… i’m just using my radio being off center to figure of speech for my overall wellness and just the way that I feel mentally and emotionally
