OK, this is the second time I have heard the phrase "brain zaps". For the third day running now (on and off in the past) I have had a feeling like a pinched nerve in my neck. I turn my head either way and a "zap" goes down my my neck and through my left side. It also goes up into my brain. Is that a "brain zap"? Thank you for your encouraging words. I keep hearing that symptoms will last for up to 3 months, but I was only on a very lose dose. I hope it will only be a couple of weeks. Crying is really hard for me. To do it all day long is a little unnerving.
It feels like forever, but they shouldn't last too long. Maybe two weeks or so. I would think. I recently tried Effexor and couldn't take it. I was on it for 8 days and I now have some withdrawal symptoms like brain zaps. So I feel for you. Hope you feel better soon.
