I pray to god that he helps me going through a withdrawl and my life the way it is right now. I think most of my upset today is how my life has been latly but with the side effects of a withdrawl ie the sickness and the weepy it makes me feel so much worse.

We all have bad days, hang in there. I think if the withdrawal symptoms are having such a negative impact on you, maybe you should consider going back on paxil and slowly tapering off. This would minimize the withdrawal and give you some quality of life.

Thinking of you!!

Yes it can seem like a living hell at times. But you can do it, one day at a time, you will get there.

Your post caught my eye, as I feel the same way right now! the electrical zaps, nausea and vomiting are just too much for me. But I have heard that it gets better. we can do this and be free from this PaxHELL!

Dear Lord, I pray for newbegining and vickyrn in their struggles. Let them feel the grace of your hand on their shoulders and give them the strength to become well with the knowledge that your love for them will help them through this moment in their lives. Even in their darkest moments you are their holding their hands and guiding them through. In Jesus name Amen.

Just know the withdrawals don't last forever, go slow (recently learnt hard way!) off paxil, have 100% faith and conviction that your paxil journey will be just that...a journey and no more...

Love and blessings

Praying for all of us on both good and not so good days - strength, belief & hope - that we all can become the greater good and help one another surpass when we feel we cannot - and rejoice with eachother when we have!

Hi I am new to this site and joined for support to come off lexapro. Recently weaned from 10mg to 5mg (within a month) but had terrible mood swings. Psych put me back up to 10mg against my will, so I'm going it alone and weaning 10% every month, but I'm really scared. Lots of people here talk about physical symptoms. What about mood? Will I come through the darkness? I don't want to be on this stuff for life. How do I know what Jesus wants for me...

Also on lamactil 200mg (that's next!)

Hi, Ali,
I think your post was somehow overlooked. You're on the right track with a 10% taper. You might want to start your own thread to receive more responses.

Amen! May God heal those who seek His healing today! You are all in my prayers.
