Well when I went off Lexapro the flu like symptoms lasted around 2 weeks for me. Everything I ate tasted like cardboard, felt like I had a stuffy nose (I dont know if I actually 'really' did), itchy eyes, cloudy head, no energy to clean, clammy hands. I guess it lasts as long as a normal sort of flu? One thing that was not flu like, was that the insomnia was prominate. Good thing you have a sleep aid. I took alot of showers, and that seemed to help. Good luck.
> Thanks meanreds. I have a prescription for trazadone to help me sleep during this withdrawal period, so I'll try that. When you have had the flu-like symptoms when going off an antidepressant, do you remember how long they lasted?
