didnt know about the witdrawals from paxil so i went from 40mg to 20 for about a week, then quit, then a week later - BAM -

shitting, vertigo, mood swings, heavy confusion, that wierd sound when you turn your eyes, disassociation, depresssion.

i went back to 10mg, now back to 20mg - really pisses me off cause i DONT NEED this shit anymore, i havent had a panic attack since i realized i can talk myself out of it. but i cannot handle the withdrawals - they make me useless.

so now im at 20mg, i refuse to take more, even though i still have withdrawal symptoms. there is a liquid form im gonna get and if i have to, go to 19mg for a month, 18mg for a month, ... whatever. this helped in the beginning, but HOLY HELL if someone prescribes it to you, tell them to go fuck themselves. I dont know how i will get off of it. I know im in for a fucking wild ride.
I was sitting in my hotel room, didn't know what day I woke up, nor the hour, but I was convinced someone was sitting in my room in the dark. I tried for what felt like hours to ge the intruder to leave, but he kept telling me stories about his life.

Then the flu hit, I couldn't stay away from the bathroom. I spent the rest of the night sitting up in my bed with my heart beating and my head pounding. The next morning, when I got up out of bed, I collapsed from the vertigo.

The only thing that helped, after reading all those damn websites, was smoking pot. This guy told me to get so high that I didn't know my name. I did, and it helped a lot. It eased the head / flu symptoms.

I despise that drug. I could go on for hours. I tried to join the class-action.

I am so glad I am not on it anymore. I really feel for you bro.
