I've also gotten rashes coming off of Effexor. I was also on Lamictal as well so I don't think it's common. Ana puts it best when she says:
Hoo boy, it sure doesn't.
depression introspection 
I’ve spent 19 months tapering 225 mg Effexor.
It was hell.
I forgot to bold the symptoms. They are not very different from yours.
The sad is that after three months off I was feeling many symptoms that made living impossible.
I went back to 150 mg.
The problem is:
when I’ve reached 37,5 mg I felt more and more symptoms. I thought that reaching the end would be easier.
NO! For some people it’s the opposite.
I had to stay on 37,5 mg for more time.
I’m just saying it so that other people know about it.
Of course the psychiatrist told me I was… depressed.
I never have been diagnosed depressed and took the first antidepressant – Tofranil – because I’ve searched for help to withdraw Klonopin.
Side effects started being diagnosed as diseases by other psychiatrists.
