It doesn't mean you will have withdrawal. The best way is to ween off of it slowly. I have never had withdrawal from an AD so I don't know. I think flu like symptoms are most common from what I have heard.
Not many don't have sexual side effects. Wellbutrin doesn't. All the SSRI's and SSNRI's I have taken have the sexual side effects EXCEPT for me with Fetzima, the sexual side effects have totally went away and reversed. That was a nice surprise. I just assumed I would still have them with it.
