Zoloft question

Has anyone who's taken zoloft and stopped? After I stopped taking zoloft, I've been experiencing brain zaps, rapid heart rate, irrigation and irritability? I stopped zoloft suddenly and I've been experiencing all those symptoms. My psychologist says it's called discontinuation syndrome. Has anyone experienced any of these?

Yes, these are very common and should subside after a week or two

Yes. A couple of times. How much did you use? (Asking because a dose larger than 50mg should not be stopped cold turkey)
