Effexor withdrawls

Hi all…I’m new here. I have been on EffexorXR 300mg for a year and a half. Next week I’m going to ask my doc to take me off, because the “stressors” that were in my life that caused me to start taking it in the 1st place are all out of my life. Now, I MAY still be depressed after I get off and that’s fine, put me on a new med.,but I cannot take the side effects to Effexor anymore! Have people who are on Effexor noticed being hot all the time? The sweating…god! It’s terrible! I’ve even been diagnosed with hidradenitis supportiva(disease of the seat glands) and I truly believe that this is a direct result of the Effexor. I have accidently forgotten to take my meds 2 times in my history of taking Effexor and let me tell you, it was NOT pretty! Fogginess in my mind…(I couldn’t even drive), intense sweating and shaking, increased irritablity, hypersensitivity to sound and light, nauseaus, intense chills, no concentration, severe crying from anxiety over not feeling well. All these symptons subside within an hour of taking a dose….

I’m so scared to get off the effexor this time…even with a tapering off….

any help anyone can suggest?
