Most of the work looking at the possible role of kindling in withdrawal involves alcohol. It is difficult to know the extent to which any of the results of such investigations can be extrapolated to SRI discontinuation. Still, it would be interesting to know how a drug like memantine or amantadine might modify the withdrawal process.
