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?

Default I can hear my eyes move

Catch
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!

Thank you karilann and Catch...I have decreased my Cymbalta down to nothing and I, too, can now hear my left eye move. But prior to stopping my SSRI, I have been hearing a rapid drumbeat in my left ear...call me a "head-case", but has this occurred to anyone with "noisy eyes" as well?

Default Yep

I've had the ear thumping too. Started out like "thumping" or "fluttering ear drum" as the way I described it. Then it moved to thump thump thump with a muffled hearing for a couple seconds then sometimes a stabbing pain. When my Mom died...I actually had this and also at the same time it felt like an electric bolt went through my head and seemed as though I lost vision for just a split second. Actually knocked me off me feet a bit.

Grin I can hear my eyes move--I hear thumping in my left ear

:eek Sorry to hear that and sorry to hear about your mom. I had lost my dad to a cerebral hemorrhage (sp) so not too happy with unexplainable head malfunctions! When I first heard this "thumping" I was laying on the couch, resting from a 16 hour day at work and thought one of my cats was on the back of the couch scratching and his foot was hitting the back of the couch (that's what the sound sounded like). Well it wasn't. It was me. Do you also experience occipital headaches? Another blessing in my menopausal (or should I say--mentalpausal) years.

Check out Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome. I was diagnosed with this and I could hear my eyes move, every heart beat, headaches, tinnitus, couldn't hear what people were saying when I was chewing.

I recently had Resurfacing and plugging via a middle fossa Craniology at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore by Dr John Carey!!

I woke up to silence!!!!

Confused

I'm so so happy I found this post, I thought I was going crazy!

I have multiple sclerosis but I didn't believe that what I'm experiencing was just another symptom of MS. When I move my eyes quickly, from side to side sometimes, and also sometimes when they're closed, I can hear a 'swooshing' sound as described by many people in this post.

It seems to have started last week, and now I'm realising that this coincides with me tapering off my anti-depressant medication.

I'm just wondering if anybody could tell me how long should I expect this withdrawal symptom to last? I hope so!

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.
