    I'm awfully sorry to here about the overdose of Venflaxaine, and I hope you are on the road to recovery. Luckily I should be able to get into the doctors this week to help me wean of this awful drug. It also I've noticed just makes me sleep, and sleep. What I'm trying at the moment is One 75mg a day for several days then I'm going to move to One 75mg every other day unless the GP states otherwise. I'm also going to buy Omega fish oil tablets as I have read they help in the withdrawal symptoms.... I'll keep the thread updated on that one though. I'm still getting the hot & cold shiver spasms
