Am I doing something wrong

Hi, I (25F) have been on cymbalta for about a year and I decided that I wanted to try coming off of antidepressants. I talked with my doctor and we came up with a tapering schedule that took me from 60 down to 20 (the lowest dose) over the course of 4 weeks. Felt fine going down, no adverse symptoms even when I was at the lowest dose. I finished off my supply yesterday and IMMEDIATELY was feeling like crap. I keep throwing up, my head feels like someone is playing a gong inside my brain and I’m so dizzy and nauseous all of the time. I thought one day might be the end of it but today I woke up feeling EVEN WORSE. I tried to look up what I can do about it or what will help but the only thing I’m seeing is that it’s important to taper off, which I did. Some sites are saying this can last weeks to even months and I can’t handle feeling like this for some long please tell me if something will help 😭
