What Causes Tinnitus While On Zoloft?
After 20 or so years of taking Zoloft, I decided I would like to try life without it. It s been about 3 weeks. I have a slight ringing in my ears and occasional slight flashes in my brain (that feel like small electrical flashes). How long will these last as a result of some sort of withdrawal from the medication? I also feel a bit muddle-headed.
