I had horrible zaps withdrawing from Paxil. It was like somebody sticking a taser into my brain. This was back when Drs insisted there 'was no withdrawal from SSRIs so I did it cold turkey. Yes, it did go away, probably within 2 months.

I need an antidepressant and have been taking Lexapro for several years. I can tell if I've missed one dose because the brain zaps start. I can't imagine getting off the Lexapro.
