Jen,
I don't think that weaning is absolutely necessary--I know plenty of people who cut the dose for one while starting on the minimal dosage for the other. I went from 25 mgs of Paxil CR to 10 mgs of Lexapro in December, and I took my last Paxil on Thursday and my first Lexapro on Friday. What to expect? Some blue feelings, potentially a lot of anxiety, but not out and out despair. Good luck.
