I've been on paxil for about 7 years. I do keep trying to wean off, and I'm now taking 10 mg/day, which is a very minimal amount. But I can't seem to get below that. If I even go down to 5 mg, within 2 weeks, my emotions and behavior start getting out of control. My T can always tell, even while I think I'm still managing it. So that's my experience anyway. If you do go off, you should try to have some way to monitor yourself, but, like I say, for me, I crash but don't even realize it on my own.
