    Just quit Paxil.. HELPPP

    hi guys, so i was on 20mg of paxil for about the past 6 months now and it wasn't working so I asked the doctor to take me off. The withdrawel symptoms have been horrible and it feels like my anxiety has came back full force since I quit taking them last Friday all together (I had been tapering off slowly). I was just wondering if anyone else has went through this and what to expect and will my anxiety subside again after the paxil is out of my system? I feel like the withdrawel symptoms are bringing on my anxiety again, but i'm not sure. I just feel really hot, flush, and spacey especially at night. And a sense of weightlessness. I just need some advice, someone, anyone.

    I have not withdrawn from Paxil but I have from others. It will pass and you will be fine. Eat right, sleep and definitely get some exercise. This will help a lot. Just remember it will be out of your system soon and you should feel better after.

    Good luck.

    How long did you taper off?
