I went off Zoloft completely 3 years ago. I tapered very slowly because each time I'd decrease too much, I'd get brain zaps. I thought I was in the clear when I stopped after 6 months but then developed my symptoms about 2 weeks later. I've read since then it is sometimes recommended to taper over a couple of years, especially for someone like me who had been on them for so long. Overall, I could deal with tinnitus. It's the vibrations throughout my body and the wooziness in my head that I'm having trouble dealing with. I didn't know there were neurologists who specialize in inner ear. I'll look into that. It has been verified i dont have Menieres. Thanks for taking the time to respond!

@michelegray -
I’m sorry that I’m so unaware of the difficulties getting off antidepressants!
I don’t even know if they are meant to be taken for an extended period of time.
I hope you get some answers.
