4 years, 300mg a day for Depression, but when tapering off, started to develop seizure like symptoms.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
I've also had side effects when tapering off. I've been on it for 4 years, at 300mg. Anytime I try going below 150mg, I start getting these weird feelings where things get cold, light gets really bright, and theres this colorful sheen on the edges of objects. Feels like I'm coming up on MDMA (things start feeling really good) Like there is this itch that needs to be scratched. Usually these "auras" last around 5 min, I can tell an episode is going to happen.
Then I have a "seizure-like" episode where I go into convulsions and can't control my body. I'm still present, but very confused.
Sometimes my eyes roll into the back of my head and I start stuttering. Sometimes the stutter can last a day or so.
I've been taking it for anxiety and depression, but I can't seem to get off of it without having these episodes. I have never had these kinds of symptoms before taking it.
