I've come down from 200mg Zoloft to now 100mg. I did this in about three weeks but had only been on the highest dose for a few months so the come down to 150 was cake. Then the come down from 150 to 125 was ok. now that I'm down to 100, just today, 4th day in on the 100, brain zaps from Hades! I also use klonipin 1 mg 2 or 3 times a day for anxiety. Any help on how long these zaps will be this intense?? shocked

I may stay on the 100 for a while before pushing it. My goal is to try cymbalta again for fibro and other pain issues and I don't know if I should start a low dose of cymbalta when I get close to being completely off Zoloft.

The trick is to take it slow. Let your doctor know that you are getting bad brain zaps. I hope you feel better soon.

Welcome to the forum. I gave your thread a title, it will get you more responses.

Hugs, Karen...
