Hi Sunflower, our Symptoms and Self-Care section in the Forums has lots of helpful information on coping with withdrawal symptoms. I hope it helps! Hang in there. Your body just needs a lot of time to process all the changes and stabilize. 💝
Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
