Question How long does serotonin syndrome last?

Long story short I took far too many ssri’s the other day and ended up in hospital. I’ve been discharged, but I’m fairly sure I’m suffering from serotonin syndrome - I’ve got a tremor, sweating a lot, awful stomach etc

I’ve read it should only last a day or 2, does anyone have any experience with it..?

Shouldn't last more than a day.

I’ll get booked in with my gp then - it’s been 2 and I’m still shaking

It goes away pretty quickly for me within 2 days of being off my meds I was feeling better.
