When I went through similar flu-like symptoms coming off Paxil and Zoloft (at different times) I found taking Prozac briefly helped ease the passage because it doesn't leave your system as quickly or as wrenchingly as many of the other SSRIs. GD AD developers and docs who prescribe them should have to go through a trial period with the bloody ADs and after just to see how they physically and mentally assault and insult those to whom they are prescribed. Then they might be a bit more thoughtful when developing their pharmo-cocktails, which leave one feeling as if impacted by a very severe hangover, oftentimes when they are supposed to be helping folks develop homeostasis.
