hi gUYS,

iM NEW HERE, and really struggling, i need your help.

I was first given paxil in 1997 @30mg for grieving issues, i hasten to add i was symptom free.
I took the paxil for 8yrs, before i got any symptoms of tolerance to it. So i visit my doc and he told me to miss one tablet every week and i was off the drug in 6 weeks.
That led to me becoming anxious, unable to function in any way.

Over the xmas of 2005, i was given propranellol, prozac and diazepam to help with wd symptoms, but never told they were wd symptoms at the time, i took this combination for about 6/8 weeks, then reported back to my doctor, that they were relieving symptoms, so he had me ct off, i knew no better and did what he told me, 4th march 06 ct the meds as instructed, 6th march, ct seizure.

visited my doc again in april 06, where i was reinstated on 20mg, with no relief of symptoms, and have tapered myself off so very slowly, in fact its taken me 3 long yrs to get down to 1.5mg.

Now im stuck!!!!!!!!!
The anxiety is awful, it produces a very antsy feeling where i try to distract by keep moving and doing things that dont need doing, cry a lot, frequent urination, lower back pain, pain in back of my head/neck/shoulders, which even goes into my arms, making them feel very taut.

Now another new problem thaT HAS EMERGED is the feeling that my brain is revving far too fast, like i cant slow it down, it causes internal shaking and jitteryness, and makes me feel like i may be going to experience some form of " seizure type activity", but THANK GOD, up to now has not happened.

PLEASE, PLEASE, can anyone help, i just feel very lost and helpless, does anyone know what could make me feel better, anyone here expereinced anything like this or similar, can anyone relate, i feel very alone!!!!!!!!!!!
