Having hard time getting off paxil! :(

[Spunky]

reason i decided to try and come off is because i am sooooo lethargic all of the time.. all i wanna do is eat and sleep.. i can hardly workout. weird thing is i was only taking 20mg everyday. i decided to taper and use 10mg everyday for 3-4 weeks and then cut it back to 10mg every other day for about 2 weeks and then come off completely. maybe this will work. but yes the brain shocks are terrible feelings. It feels like everything short circuits in your body and u almost stop functioning for about a second. it wouldn't be so bad if it didn't happen like ALL the time.

You need to come down to five for a few weeks.

any risks at all in using 5-htp while I taper? It seems to work wonders for me....
