Bad headache, nausea, sleeplessness, high anxiety, heart palpitations, tinnitus, dizziness, achiness, flu-like symptoms. It's bad. Very bad. That is why a very slow taper is recommend even though most doctors want patients to just take half a dose for 2 weeks, then stop after another two weeks on a half dose. It does not work for most people. I am currently tapering. I started at 75 mg and after 7 weeks, I am only down to 72.8. I tried dropping faster, but was so sick.
