Drug haven symptoms and conditions

I would like to stop taking paxil, I have been on it for 3 yrs. When I skip my medicine I get what feels like electrical shocks in my neck & head. I wasnt sure if I had a pinched nerve at 1st but began to associate this with the event that I had not taken my meds. I also have onset of panic attacks & rapid heart, & terrible terrible forgetfulness, as to even what cabinet I would like to open, I open the wrong one, go into the wrong doorway, wrong driveway. I am very concerned. I have told my Dr. that I would like to get off this Paxil but Ive been told that it would be best since I was suffering from anxiety attacks in past. I would like to be committed to be able to handle the withdrawls. If anyone has been successful in stopping Paxil and now feels pretty back to normal, please let me know. Thanks

I have been taking Lamictal for just over a year. Some of the side effects have been noticable for a few months, but others seem to just be appearing and getting worse. I have loss of balance and coordination, my vision is gettng worse, I have a hard time concentrating and finding the right words, I forget how to spell common words, I have short-term memory loss and feel spacey. I can always figure it out, but it takes longer. I began doing Pilates every day about 3 months ago and still cannot get the routine down and it is just as hard for my muscles as it was in the beginning. I can't seem to lose weight and have horrible acne on my face. I had 2 seizures before beginning Lamictal and am suppose to be on it for 2 years before trying to go off. Without insurance though, I am unable to do follow-ups w/ my neurologist and she seems unconcerned and unsypathetic to my situation, not giving me the time of day. She never even told me all of these side effects could develop, much less that they might begin long after I started taking Lamictal. Has anyone had these side effects after having taken the Lamictal for so long then stopped taking the Lamictal? Will these side effects go away after I stop taking it??

First I would like to thank to all girls for their postings here. I am so grateful for finding this site so soon after I started taking Yasmin.
Actually, I started taking Yasmin 2 days ago, and the reason to look in the net for its side effects was my last night experience. I woke up in the middle of the night, with my heart trying to go out of my chest, feeling enourmously scared and panicked without a reason, being unable to control my body and thoughts. I have spent the next few hours thinking that I was going to die, or get insane. Also I was feeling very dizzy and had nausea.
Today, I still feel as if I have been heavily intoxicated with a bad drug (haven't tryed any drugs before, but I imagine it feels like that).

I have never experienced anything like this before - I am very positive and outgoing person and my life is deffinitelly very happy at the moment and not stressed, so there is no other reason for the horrible night I've had but this pill - Yasmin.
The package is already in the wastebin, and I am considering myself happy for finding out so soon about the terrible side effects of this pill.

Once again - thank you girls for sharing your experiences. Wish you good luck with getting your lives back to normal.
As for me - I have appointed my bf to be my new BCP - I am sure that he can do this better than any chemicals.

All the best,

Nina
