Withdrawal symptoms with SSRIs/SNRIs (often called a "Discontinuation Syndrome" to avoid a semantic argument about what "withdrawal" means) are quite well documented. The symptoms are exacerbated by long term use and especially by sudden discontinuation. Medical professionals will invariably recommend a slow tapering of dosage before attempting to discontinue treatment.
