Discontinuation syndrome

Hello there! I was just wondering if there is anyone else out there at the moment who has withdrawn/is withdrawing from an antidepressant. It has been just over 8 weeks since I took my last dose of Sertraline - it was absolute hell being on the drug (it clearly did not suit me, but my doctor insisted I stayed on it - even though it continued to give me extreme anxiety/ panic attacks/insomnia and suicidal thoughts - which I had never had when I started the meds) and it is continuing to be absolute hell in this stage of the process. Is there any one who could help me with advice- as the doctors think that once you are off the antidepressant, everything in the garden should be rosy!!
