Does anybody else experience withdraw symptoms after taking naps? I take venlafaxine and sometimes it feels like it wears off

It makes me very temperamental and I get body zaps

No not personally, but venlafaxine seems to be known for quite often bad withdrawal symptoms and possibly "brain zaps" if you miss a dose.

It may work for some people so I don't want to be too negative about it; but for myself, I will do whatever is required to skip over trying it.

I was on venlafaxine before, also felt it wears off. My dosage was increased

Venlafaxine is also available in "extended release" versions. So if you aren't already taking that type of it, it could possibly help a bit.
