I read yesterday on a blog omega fish oils which I'm going to stock up on tomorrow. One week off Venlafaxine tomorrow and withdraw just awful

  Hi Elaine, for the past 3 nights I've reduced from 2x75 slow/r to 1x75 and a 37.5 tab, going to continue with this for at least 2/3 weeks and hopefully I've been able to see my gp by then for advice with next step!

  This is my 3rd day of reducing and the only thing I've noticed is I feel quite irritable and edgy but I think that's because I'm worried about withdrawal .

  I can imagine. I would feel exactly the same. Best of luck 👍
