This is to #31213. I too was on Paxil for 6 months. It took me 4 months to get off that damn pill. This is how I got off it.
_reduce dosage untill you get to lowest dosage.
_Then only take pill every other day or third day(few weeks)
_Then cut pill in half and take every other day or every day (what ever works) Try to go to every other day in some time
_Then cut the half pill into another half (take a few weeks)
_Continue to lower dosage this way until you are only able to lick the powder because the dosage is so low.
When living your days with those awful dizzy spells and brain attacks, Look forward and down throughout the day as much as possible. Try not to turn your head alot! This will help the dizzyness somewhat!
I had all the same effects your girlfriend did and my doctor also said to go to 0 dosage or stay on. That was bull ****! I found the right way from reading other storys! Good Luck!
