Hey, I'm just getting off of Paxil and its my second day without it... THIS IS HELL, I took half of a pill for 2 weeks each day, and slowly came down to none, but the symptoms are so CRAZY, I'm getting these brain Zaps, feelin sick, I can hardly walk. Wow my doctor never told me this would happend when I came off, does anyone have any advice for what I can do to help this???

Hi Jordan.

I am too on Paxil withdrawal. Yes it's horrible. For the brain zaps, when you're on another SSRi it goes away for sure, fast.

I don't have those anymore. Maybe you could ask to be put to Prozac, 10 mg or less, a few days. This will help to end the zaps.

There are anti-nausea that can help for some too.

Go VERY slowly, I cut at 5 mg one week.

But unfortunately, the best is 1) wait or 2) take another antidep who has less withdrawal effect.

This is my opinion
