Answers:
since you've been on a steady dose of zoloft for so long, it'll take a while for your body to adjust!. be patient and keep your primary psychiatrist informed of your moods and side affects!. why r u withdrawing!? are u going off completely!? it's a big decision to make and if you don't have a good psychiatrist/psychologist with you, it makes it much harder!. good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
When a person goes off antidepressant medication they can have something called "discontinuation syndrome"!. It feels more like withdrawal to the person it is happening to!. People sometimes have nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and strange feeling in their head!. People also have increased anxiety sometimes!. This happens with Paxil, Effexor and Cymbalta the most!.
It depends are you adjusting to a new dose or discontinuing it completely!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
