I have been taking 75 mg of Effexor for approximately 14 years. I have recently not had insurance coverage. I tried to wean myself down the last week of taking what I had left. I currently have zapping feelings in my head and for some reason I can not go to sleep even after taking a couple of sleeping pills. When I do sleep I have terrible night mares. I was put on this medication because I was diagnosed with PTSD. But now not have the stress in my life from my ex-husband and my mother I am thinking I will be able to work through the anxiety much better. Do you have any recommendations for the symptoms and what I can do. Thank you so much for your time.
