NO! Don't throw in the towel at all. I've had 2 SSRI's that did that to me in the past. It took a month for the zaps to stop then as they slowly receded, it took another 5 months or so to feel normal again.
If you really want to be off medication. I have found it can take me 6 months or longer to feel like me again. Some people find it takes longer and some quicker. Everyone is different, but what you are experiencing is not out of the ordinary to me at all. Good luck, you're through the worst of it.
