brain zaps from switching to different generic lexapro, anyone?

Medication

My pharmacy switches escitalopram generics every couple of months, a while back they switched to one and I started having brain shocks and other withdrawal symptoms (increased anxiety issues mostly).

The pharmacist at the time understood what was happening and put me back on the specific generic I was on before and they stopped.

Has anyone else run into this?
