Curious what side effects you experienced when trying to get off the drug? I experience sever brain flashes whenever I forget to take it after a few days. Anything else you had to deal with?

Definitely the brain jolts which I TOTALLY forgot until another redditor posted about them. Also very very irritable. Dizziness if I recall correctly and overall not feeling well at all. When I was finally able to "stop" taking the med, I had a few episodes of not feeling well sort of hard to explain the exact feeling and wondered what was causing them and then I recalled the ssri I was taking and I instantly accounted those symptoms from that drug. Those lasted for about a year after completely being off the med.
