Has anyone had paranoid feelings and agitation upon withdrawal from effexor (venlafaxine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably, but....: Serotonin discontinuation syndrome can have a wide variety of symptoms including irritability, anxiety, and visual disturbances. However, it is very important to consider if the symptoms the medication was treating could be returning. Please speak with the prescribing physician to clarify!
