Withdrawal symptoms from antidepressant

I am trying to come off of Lexapro and am having severe physical syptoms. (Though I was told this would not happen.)
I have electric-like sensations in my arms and legs. I have diarreah. I have light-headedness and dizziness.
I have to have some relief but do not want to start taking the meds again. I don't have insurance and just can't afford it anymore, as well as having a strong desire to be off medication entirely.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hi- write to dr. showrav on here. Give him your browser link.

See if he can take your case on the forum or if he has to-
private.

He has had success with people coming off of anti-depressants
and having the symptoms you are having.
