I had a terrible withdrawl from Paxil. I would get high anxiety from going off of it even at a very slow rate. I got diarrhea and vomiting from going off. I tried 3x to get off Paxil. The previous 2x I went back on the meds I finally made it, but not without losing my voice from vomiting so much. On the 3 rd try I had to go to the hospital for an IV for severe dehydration. The whole reason I was getting off of it was because it stopped working for my depression. All I was getting from it a that time was side effects. I wish you the best. I am so glad that I got off of it and made it through all that hell.
