Originally on 100mg Sertraline. On sertraline for 5 years

I started a cross taper 7 weeks ago.
14 days on 50mg Sertraline 20mg Citalopram,
14 days on 25mg Sertraline 20mg citalopram,
Stopped Sertraline just over 3 weeks ago but on roughly day 20 after stopping I started to have what I’d consider Withdrawals from the sertraline

Strong anxiety, Depression, Hopelessness etc… nothing in life has altered to cause except the medication change so i’m assuming it’s withdrawal

I’ve always been sensitive to changing, missing doses.

Wonder if anyone has experienced similar.
I expected the negative side effects to start sooner

Thank you
