withdrawal after 8 weeks

Hi, To carry on from the discussion last week about withdrawing after only taking paxil for 8 weeks, I'm now taking 5 mg from 10 mg, day 2, no difference noted except now i'm staring to get anxious and making stupid mistakes, not sure if its the drug or me.

Re: withdrawal after 8 weeks

More than likely, it's the drug. Just stay where you are before dropping any further. While whatever you feel will probably be short lived, you still may feel some w/d effects.

Don't underestimate this drug..its not Aspirin ok...so as Laurie says..stay where you are for now and wait it out..there is no rush...you want to do this as safely as possible.
