Re: Venlafaxine withdrawal mood changes and depression!
George, from what I understand you are experiencing typical withdrawal symptoms.
Perhaps someone who has come off Venlafaxine could post some advice for you?
All I can say is try not to keep 'tuning in' to how you are feeling as this will make you worry more. it is only 10 days since you stopped the medication, I have read that Ven/Effexor is one of the worst meds to withdraw from although I cannot comment from personal experience as I am still on it.
I wish you well and hope you get the answers you need. If it persists the perhaps see your GP in a week or so.
Good luck, Kitti xx
