Did you quit abruptly or taper off?  At any rate, it should pass over time, but a hefty dose of fish oil daily is said to help with the brain zaps from anti-depressant withdrawal.  One should always do a taper off these meds, it won't eliminate the possibility of withdrawal but it might make it more easily controlled and make it last a shorter time.
