You have to come off the venalfaxine very slowly and cut down by small amounts each week the dizziness does stop after a while. Try taking Benadryl as this seems to help with withdrawal Simptoms I don't know how it works but it does I read about or on the US forum so that's why I tryed it as everyone was saying how much it helped them

Cetrazine hydrochloride is the one you need to get. Is doesn't have to be Benadryl as you can get packs of cetrazine hydrochloride from the chemist this is the best to use as you don't need all the other ingredients that are in Benadryl

I take 2 tabs per day and that seems to help. I don't think I'm brave its just that I am used to going through this kind of thing as I'm a recovering alcoholic and when I came off the booze it was hell on earth and compared to going through that this is know where near as bad. I have been through a lot of hard times in my life and I'm kind of used to it to be honest, so if I can get through all the bad things I have been through then I'm sure I will get through this. I'm also trying to come to terms with the love of my life finishing with me on Thursday so I feel very sad and alone at the moment , but I'm sure I will over it in time and am trying hard not to think about it as what's important is that I get well so I have to concentrate on that for now
