OK, so ive been trying to come off effexor (for the 4th time) each time i do it gets harder and harder. I dont know if i'll be able to come off it now the side effects are so bad, even tapering it off it agony. I feel like i wana throw up, exhausted from doing nothing, shaking uncontrollably, head feeling it is gona explode etc etc. I have never feel so bad as i do these days. I dont even wana do anything but curl up and die! surely these drugs companies should be held accountable for this, the side effects are far worse than they ever said and the doctor doesnt even understand anything about the withdrawl symptoms yet he hands them out like sweets! anyone any similar experiences?:(
