I have been reading up on this all morning. Mostly because I am bored and your blunt rudeness caught my attention. Every scholarly journal I have found on this topic gives an abstract and then required you to register your personal information to qualify to read on (I doubt I would qualify since I'm not a doctor). After reading page after page on countless websites I cannot find anything that answers your question. The best I can find are possible treatments. Everything I've read says a mild case should resolve itself in about 24 hours of the discontinuation of whatever drugs have caused it. I know that isn't actually the answer to your question but it was the best information I could find.
Might I be so bold as to ask why you are seeking answers to this question on an Internet forum? Are you just bored? If you are seeking medical advice for yourself or a loved one I would recommend seeing a doctor. That would be the safest route to finding your answers.
Good luck.
Also, I would add, everything I have read (including abstracts from scholarly journals) seems to agree that there are not enough enough studies of "serotonin syndrome" also referred to as "serotonin toxicity" or ST or SSRI. Actually a few journals imply that many doctors do not even recognize the syndrome.
