Yes, some people do experience the protracted withdrawl symptoms. It took me about a year off celexa before I felt back to 100% normal. However, I still needed medication at the time to get back to normal.
I think withdrawl symptoms exist, but at the same time, normal people don't take antidepressants.
Its like going to get your first pair of glasses and putting them on. If you stop wearing them after a few months you will notice your eyes are worse, becuase they havn't had to work as hard to focus. Thats not a reason to bash glasses. If you really want to get back to your preglasses state, it will take a long time of sqiniting.
The bottom line is have a problem or you don't. Sometimes taking medications convince people that there was never a problem to begin with. That can be dangerous because they can't understand why they don't feel well off the drugs. If you need glasses, you're never going to see 100% without them (or contacts / laser surgury.. yadia).
