Coming off Sertraline

[Graceski]

I have been on Sertraline for about 3.5 months on 100mg, dropped down to 50mg for a couple of weeks, then 50mg every other day, and a few days ago I stopped taking them all together.

The last couple of days my head feels quite strange. It's like every time I turn my head or move my eyes I'm getting this really weird intense pressure feeling which makes me stop whatever I'm doing. Like if I'm walking in the street it literally feels so intense it stops me from walking.

Has anyone ever had anything like this coming off the meds? I feel like my eyes are gonna pop out!!!

How long can I expect this to last? It's so uncomfortable and it's driving me crazy

I've done a bit of research and it seems they're called "brain zaps" - common coming off anti depressants. At least I know what they are now, and seem to go off in around 2 weeks from when you stop meds. Just got to ride it out
