SSRI's were by far the worst culprit for yawning I have ever experienced. Cipramil,(citalopram) was by far the YAWNING WINNER!!!!!!!!! After every yawn and or jaw chatter/wobble I would then clench my teeth so hard that I cracked several right down to the gum line. Prozac did this too and so did Luvox and Efexor XR to a lesser extent. It's not a good look at work when you're driving people around all day. I had never experienced this before and as soon as I stopped taking SSRI's it never came back. Have you raised your SSRI intake recently, that always made it heaps worse for me. I was going for 50+ big ones a day, so embarrassing. And I would just love to add that hearing a physician acknowledging Efexor withdrawal hell is just music to my ears. Thankyou so much for sharing that. Paul
