I'm in the process of switching from SSRIs to MAOIs (paroxetine to moclobemide) and I really didn't expect for it to feel so awful. This past week has been the worst I've felt in years, to the point that I'd like to do nothing but sleep through it to get over it. I have massive vertigo, feel feverish and have such a bad insomnia yesterday I was up for over 40 hours with 1 hour of sleep without a drop of caffeine. When I do sleep I have messed up dreams, and the so-called "brain-zaps" might be the most appropriately named thing ever considering it feels like someone is constantly proding me with a taser.

For the record I'm not asking for any medical advice, I'm just waiting for the new drugs to kick in, and in the meantime I'm interested in hearing other people's experiences with it, since I don't think it really gets talked about that much.
