"Feeling bad. Been having bouts of crying spells." — @Lucy

I'm sorry for your terrible struggles right now. They're just a result of your cold-turkeys since it kind of shocked your nervous system. Hopefully if you reinstate a tiny bit things will get better. Hang in there my friend!

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.28 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Synthroid - 25 mcg
