I'm in almost as much panic about what might happen as I get off effexor than what it is actually responsible for - I think. lol

I started weaning off of 150mg this way:

Alternatively taking 75mg and 150mg every other day.
Just on 75mg for a few days.
On 37.5mg for 5 days.
Taking 18mg for 4 or five days.

I haven't had any of the symptoms except severe agitation in the body. Maybe a little dizziness.

My plan is to stay on 18 mg for 4 more days and then go off it completely.

Are there worse side effects to come, or am I through the biggest part of the storm?
