Hi
I have been on paxil for 8 years. I was 19 when I started and really needed it at the time. It helped me tremendously. But now I am 27, still taking it, and wondered why. So I decided to start cutting back on the dosage. I went from 20mg to 10mg and I am now on my 7th day and feel horrible. I cannot feel my face, it feels like my brain is sloshing from side to side, mood swings, tired, and just overall feeling crappy. I talked to my pharmacist and he never heard of these symptoms. I was frustrated. But I went online only to find hundreds of other people have the same problem. They say paxil is worse than coming off a street drug. Some said hold on for a wild ride. So I thought I would start my own and see what I heard from all of you. Thanks
