Reply to "Effexor"

Hi Holly,

I take Lexapro or Celexa off and on, and so I have experienced some similar withdrawal symptoms. I've had vivid dreams, irritability, headaches, and the electricity jolts (I thought I was the only one!). If you find out what the electricity jolts are, please share with us because I've wondered but have never asked. I get those sometimes even when I'm not on meds or weening off of them. They last for a few days and will then go away, and usually when I am stressed.

You could always take an effexor now to see if it minimizes your symptoms. Did you ween at all or just stop abruptly?
