Not sure what you mean by that. Withdrawals themselves are just dizziness, anxiety, mood swings, and lack of sleep. It sucks, but I think the effects of the SSRIs themselves, especially at higher doses, are far more concerning.
Joe Rogan actually talked about how his friend described them once, which was like it’s impossible to have a negative emotion - he said he could watch his best friend get killed and it wouldn’t bother him in the slightest. That’s 100% accurate. I haven’t felt like that for a while - I’ve been on a medium sort of dose for a few years now - but just think of the implications of that. It absolutely doesn’t surprise me how many mass shooters are on these things, put it that way. Imagine you’re a depressed loser who’s angry at the world, and maybe has other mental health issues on top, and now suddenly you’re on a pill that makes you completely non-reactive to even the most horrendous of experiences.
Sensory and movement disturbances have also been reported, including imbalance, tremors, vertigo, dizziness, and electric-shock-like experiences in the brain, often described by people who have them as "brain zaps". These "brain zaps" are often described as feeling like an unsettling shiver or shock sensation that starts in the head and moves quickly through the entire body.
It is said to be common with SSRI.

Do you experience brain zaps?

No, never got that fortunately.
