Hello! I have question, does anyone know how to get off this crap? I have been asking my doctor for what feels like months to get off it and he won’t let me. I was reading on here someone was having some OCD side effects like coming out more since taking it and I’m seriously have the same problem. It’s making me feel crazy all these different things showing up in my life all because of taking this stupid pill I didn’t want to be on in the first place

      I am tapering off Effexor right now, started at 375mg, decreased by 75mg at a time every 5 days. I haven’t had any problems with it. You should have your doc on board though - my question would be, why isn’t your doc listening to you?

      When I was ready to get pregnant my doctor took me off Effexor and put me on Zoloft. She did this by gradually lowering my dose of Effexor and adding Zoloft at the same time. I had no problems at all doing it this way.
