First Accord, does your doc know you have discontinued your anti depressant? How long were you taking cipralex? What was the dosage? It can be very dangerous to simply stop taking ADs like that. In particular, the reason you started taking them in the first place.

Second, Why did you stop taking the meds?

Third, if you go back on the cipralex does the symptom go away?

no but iam gonna call him today
since march 2009
it was 10mg per day

i feel improvement , beside my doctor told me to stop it in nov 2009 but gradually and this what did I do
i did not try and i will not , until my doc allow me...

Going off antidepressants cold turkey can cause symptoms like you are experiencing. Its best to taper off slowly and under a doctors supervision. Regardless as to why you stop taking them.....go off slowly. I believe that my problem was from messing up my dosage during the death of my mom. I was up for 4 days straight and don't know when I took my meds.....thats when the problems started.
Be careful!

now my case improved and not always i hear my eyes' movement and i notice that vertigo are realy disapear , but my problem still with increase my sleep hours to 10 or 11 per day and that affect on my job and other activity..
any way i am now better and thank u karilann and Catch

I've been trying to find what this is. I initially experienced this when I was on Effexor. If I was late with a dose or missed a dose I would experience a "whooshing" or "clicking" sound with eye movement. It would resolve several hours after taking my med again. As of late however, I'm not on any type of anti depressants. Haven't been for months... I got the flu and was really sick and ever since then I've started having this "whooshing" with eye movement again accomp with occasional severe dizziness. Is this some sort of synaesthesia? Has anyone ever been told by a dr what this is? It's really annoying.

I experience this phenomenon right now. I have visited an ENT who did a physical exam of my ears, nose and throat and then I had an audiology test. So far she has not indicated a diagnosis. I am waiting about a week to see if this phenomenon goes away. If not, she suggested a CT scan of the sinus area of my head. The sound I experience occurs if I keep my head steady, and look quickly left or right. It also occurs if I look upward. But not if I look down. The sound I experience seems to be in my ears, a swishing sound, or a low frequency rubbing sound. I imagine it to be the sound of two rubber bands drawn across each other at right angles, like a bow across a violin string. But the sound in not high frequency, like a high pitched tone or the ringing described by tinnitus. I have experienced tinnitus very infrequently. And I cannot voluntarily generate that sound. This sound seems only associated with voluntary movement of the eyes. I do have a slight sensation of pressure in the ears, but no nausea or vertigo. I would like to know if there is a diagnosis for this. I have not ever had this sensation before.

You have given a very good description of what I experienced. For me, it seemed to be from my anti depressant. I was not taking it regularly and this was the side effect. Once in a blue moon I still get it but not as bad as I was. The anti depressant seems to be the best scenario so far. Because I have M.S., docs did not explore it further and it seemed to get better. Having M.S. seems to be the blame for everything! However; doing my own research and talking to docs: antidepressants can do this if you go into a withdrawl type situation. Please keep me posted if you find something more. You can private message me on this site. Good luck to you

I have experienced hearing my eyes move multiple times in the past, right now its driving me nuts! I know its my antidepressant, but I wish there was a way to speed up the process of getting rid of this.

I've been on Ciprolex for a while, I've came on and off of it in the past, mainly because I couldn't afford it. I had benefits for a while, then lost them, etc... I just finished my perscription about a week ago, and without fail, the swooshing noise returns.

As bad as it sounds, i'm glad i'm not the only one who experiences this... lol my family thinks i'm nuts, and my doctor looks at me like I have 6 heads when I tell him about this.

cheers all!

Hi Nedlog....welcome..

Yes I get this too but only in my left eye, first noticed this a few years ago now but never found out what it is or what causes it, I have other symptoms relating to the left side of my face and head but dont know what they are, assume they are related. I get left-sided headaches, pains on the left side of face and nose too, plus audible pulsations on the left side. Do you get any other symptoms at the same time? My audible eye movements are not always present but are often accompanied by some of the other above mentioned symptoms.
