Effexor withdrawels

I hate this stuff, it work for my anxiety (panic) disorder buut the side effects are bad. I stopped cold turkey about 4 years ago, was off it for allmost a year but suffered every day. Thus I found myself back on the dreded effexor again

About a 2 years ago I decided I wanted off, so I took over a year to go to half a tablet, then 6 months to go to a quarter. I got so tired of the brain fogs, electric shocks, blurry vision, flu like symptoms and a rash of other side effects I stopped about 2 weeks ago. So far so good, I am having a lot of little problems but I am dealing with them. The worst problem is rage! As in bouts of, sometimes I feel like I want to f off everybody

The good part is I got my MOJO back.............................I think!
