In reply to Paxil Withdrawl, how long does it last?, posted by Jodie on July 4, 2000, at 18:22:14
> I am 33 years old and just weened myself off of Paxil. My last pill was taken 6 days ago. Need I say more...I am completely unfunctionable with my dizziness. I have been to the doctor twice in 4 days and finally got the answer that it may be a Paxil withdrawl. Gotta love those uninformed docs.
> I have tears in my eyes reading these past posts and I am finding comfort in knowing this truly is what I am experiencing.
For me, it lasted almost 2 months. It was really hard, but I made it through. I tried drinking a lot, but that just made it worse. Temporarily taking a benzo might help, like ativan.
I'm sorry you are going through this, hang in there.

> But I am desperate to know how long symptoms can last??? I need to know that there is a light at this dark tunnel. Who would have thought there would be such a withdrawl. Makes me scared to try anything else.
