Re: did I stop too soon
Yes, stopping at 5mg is too high a dose to stop from. We've recieved some new information on weaning just yesterday and going extremely slow, especially at the lower doses is critical. 10% of your current dosage is what some are recommending for each wean. This is going to require liquid paxil. When did you stop completely?

Re: did I stop too soon

try and hang in there if you can! you can do it! sheri |

Re: did I stop too soon
Yup, to long off to consider going back on. Ride it out. You're coming into the time period when this should start to calm down. Remember, paxil withdrawal doesn't exempt you from viruses and the flu!!!!

Oh, never run out of optimism!! Ryan is 19 months off and still improving today!!! This is a LONG process with no definitive timeline. It is what it is.
