thanks for the replys my wife thinks the same . come down slowly.
i know this isn't a blog but i am just updating my feelings from the past 24 hours.
last night i slept not too badly but i woke with one hell of a head on me.
felt a bit like i had been hit on the top of my skull by a bus.
i took 200mg of nurofen migraine relief and 200mg of modafinil and it seemed to ease the pain a little.
i went to work feeling rather dizzy and having audible hallucinations (sounds like a tin roof flapping about in the wind) spent the morning feeling weaker and weaker by the hour.
i had to take 100mg of dihydracodine by 1pm as my head was hurting like hell and i was starting to get confused and forgetting to carry out the tasks i had set myself at work. at 2.20 i started to be physically sick and feeling faint. 3pm and 3.40 i was again physically sick. i have felt a little on the low side today. feeling like i just couldnt cope with quitting this drug . but i really want to get off it so i just keep repeating to myself "positive mental attitude".
on the plus side i feel a lot better this evening and although i didnt fancy eating anything i really enjoyed my meal my wife made.
going to slow the withdrawal down a bit and take half a 75mg effexor each day for a week see how i get on. my dr tells me that there is no smaller tablet than a 75mg in the uk so its rather inaccurate splitting the capsuals but i do a rough split.
check back tomorrow
