I am always confused when someone says they want to wean off their antidepressant. If you truly suffer from clinical depression find another antidepressant.
All SSRI’s will give up zapping sensations. Find another SSRI that works better. Zoloft is very well tolerated by many people and Wellbutrin complements it very well.
I took 100 mg for many years and cut my dosage to 50 mg with no side effects. I kept my Wellbutrin at the same dose.
Good luck to you but if you suffer from clinical depression take something. Life is too short.
