Where you basically get the flu or feel flu like from going off your off AD?

I've had flu like symptoms these last couple days and I went off my Prestiq on Saturday. That was the last day of the tapering

But my pcp swears what I'm feeling isn't withdrawels and he did a crazy amount of blood work today and I just want to sleep.

Head zaps are quite common when discontinuing an SSRI or SNRI. I've been on and off a half dozen times. I find it easier to quit than to start. When you start you are typically seriously depressed and the meds make it worse for a couple of weeks. Some people can't tolerate that, hence the suicide warning on the label.
