Seroxat long term withdrawl

Disclaimer: I'm a wierd case and I was under the age of 25 when taking these which has been shown as an increased risk factor for the side effect I was suffering from, most people will not get this I'm just lucky!

I'm just wondering if anyone else has had similar problems with wthdrawl from Seroxat. I had to come off it without GP support as I kept trying to kill myself - it was a side effect of the meds - and the GP would only offer to up the dose. So I had to taper it myself via info from the net, which I did - but I still six years on get electric shock sensations and what I call 'head wobbles' where it feels like my perception of the world is wobbling around though I am not. Has anone else had such long term withdrawl symptoms and if so do they ever stop?
