Panick attacks whilst coming off Duluxotine

[Chinupkneedown]

Not sure if I am posting this in the right area, but I am suffering severe panick attacks coming off duluxotine.

Is this normal? I was expecting some side effects, but not this severe, I am a strong person normally, but this is rediculous.

Any suggestions welcome.

I was on duluxotine 60mg for 6 months, and the GP told me to take one every other day for a week then stop.

I am going out of my mind, everything is rushing past me at 100mph, I am dizzy, nauseous, and panicking like I have never done! Not to mention the bursts of tears at the drop of a hat!

Help!

Is this listed as a side effect?

If not best check wth your doc.

I've never used duloxetine but had very bad withdrawals from something else when my doc wrongly advised me to come off it too quickly. Sounds like withdrawal symptoms to me and that you should have been told to come off more slowly (is there a lower dose available?)

Hopefully someone will be along who has direct experience of this drug x
