Stopping Cipralex and side affects

[Taurus429]

Hi, I was on Cipralex for a year after losing my dad to cancer. I was on 5mg for past 3 months and have slowly tapered off to nothing.
Its now been 2 weeks and the side affects are awful, and need to know if anyone else is going through the same thing as me
I did finally get my sex drive back, well all for one day but have been having the following side affects;

Anger Outbursts
Tearful
Not sleeping
irritable
tired

Is this all very normal and when will things settle, ??
Need some help as I cant keep feeling this way

Of course it is normal to experience side effects at some point and of course they will go away after a while and let it be 1 month max to see a major improvement in the withdrawal process.
