Effexor is very addictive. It is supposed to be non-habit forming, but ask people who have taken it for awhile what it's like when they run out. In my "other" life I used to have patients who would get sick as a dog, trying to come off it. Nausea, dizziness, and a lot of the other things you described are common symptoms.

I'd try and ween off it and take something else, if at all possible. Find a doctor to help you do it. Don't go cold turkey.
