Suggest Remedy For Persistent Nausea Post Weaning Off Antidepressants

I have been having nausea ever since I got off of antidepressants in February 2014. At first my psychiatrist and I accepted it as part of my withdrawal symptoms but I am still experiencing them and now my psychiatrist does not believe it is from withdrawal anymore. She believes it is caused by anxiety now. I do not believe it is caused by anxiety because my symptoms still come in waves and windows like it does during antidepressant withdrawal. I also had blood tests, urine test, stool tests, ultrasound, and barium swallow that have come out normal. I also had a gastric emptying study that said I had borderline rapid gastric emptying but the GI doctor said that was normal too. I just do not know what is causing my nausea for over a year now. I feel like the antidepressants I took triggered a medical problem for me to make my stomach so sensitive now.
