Cherylann, I am having the same symptoms. I am weepy and feel frightened a lot. Of what, I don't even know. I have never been frightened before, ever. I have only been off a week, and I keep hoping I will even out. I came off very slowly. It took months.

Perhaps you should go back to a small amount for about a month.
