Question:
Dizzy as I write this. Seems as though the drug, even in the small amount I reduced to, stops the dizziness, but God help you when you reduce to zero. What can we do to get the word out to the unsuspecting public. I am concerned that the side-effects I am experiencing will never go away. Perhaps permanent physical damage has been done to my brain, and I will have to live with this for the rest of my life. Can someone tell me if these withdrawal symptoms ever go away.

Answer:
My God -- I thought I was nuts. I'm having the exact same "brina shivers" thing coming off of Paxil. I can't find any reference to this anywhere in the pharmacology reports, PDR, etc. and my neurologist didn't seem to have ever heard of it. I'd like to know if other people have the same problem. I'm guessing it has to do with the levels of serotonin dropping. I also experienced these "brain shivers." (I couldn't even describe them to the doctor because I didn't know what to call them.) I went almost a whole week where I could barely function because they were so bad. I experience the same symptoms you've described. Dizziness and brain shivers. It's like I'm losing touch with reality and I'm going to collapse any time soon. The problem is that I've taken other medications and then had to stop so as to take another with less side-effects. The result of withdrawal is always nasty. Suddenly I realise that I'm dependent on medications to lead a normal life. Problem is, I've got this neurotic feeling that perhaps I have permanent "physical damage done to my brain" too. Like the amount of brain cells I have has drastically diminished by the number of years on medication and I'm not able to live without them. I'm glad I caught this thread. Two days ago started halfing my daily dose. I haven't experienced your withdrawl signs, except temperature changes. But what I have had is a tremendous headache which refuses to leave me with OTC meds or anything else I could get my hands on. Just will have to live with so I can live without it. Has anyone noticed mood changes and how so?
