You should make an appointment with your GP and tell him/her how you feel before you stop it. Those side effects are pretty common for venlafaxine but part of it may be your anxiety too. These drugs take time to work and for your body to get used to them. Don't stop suddenly though or you could get some nasty withdrawal symptoms.
