"i am experiencing a major withdrawal or discontinuation syndrome from belviq. for three weeks i have had major anxiety, odd brain sensations, flu symptoms, numbness in my hands and feet, cough, earache... just to name a few. i know that this syndrome is associated with ssris but this seems worse than what i have read about. i&#039;m wondering if the &#039;novelty&#039; of this agent means that they just don&#039;t know what to expect when people go off of it. i feel really stupid and i&#039;m soooo sick of feeling this bad. praying these symptoms stop."
