Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your symptoms of severe abdominal pain diarrhoea following after discontinued anti-depressant drug I am suggesting that you have developed a gastritis which is one of the side effects of this medication
In view of this please see a gastroenterologist specialist for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
Meanwhile please take the following
Tablet antacids
Tablet Antispasmodic
I hope this helps Regards
