Hi Every1
i have been on venlaflaxine for 3 years 225mg daily, i have dropped down to 150mg and my pcn said to take them for 2 weeks then to drop again to 75mg for another 2 weeks, im on day 3! im stopping because i want to try for a baby and venlaflaxine is not recommended, once i came off venlaflaxine they are putting me on another medication which is ok for when and if i get pregnant. So far side effects have been bearable, finding it hard to sleep, my husband said i sounded like i was drunk, i must amit it is scary coming off them, my panicking has increased but i think im over thinking how i feel, so im just taking everyday as it comes atm, but i was told not to stop straight away as the withdrawal is awful, any way wanted to post just in case there is any one else in the same situation, as i feel its always good to hear from ppl in the same situation to know that your not alone xx:ohmy:
