Benzo withdrawal. Anxiety through the roof. Constant. Body aches. Tremendous joint pain. Pins and needles all over. It lessens over time. Just keep going. Healthy food. No chemicals, no alcohol. Darth Vader breathing. Epsom baths. Do same routine of things every day whether you want to or not. Rest but keep moving forward. Took me 4 years... after taking the last dose! Almost healed.... You can do this!

I have been on Aropax (paroxetine) for just over 30years. My max daily dose was 10mg, recently I realised that the reasons I started it, no longer existed and really wanted to come off it. During the time I’ve been on it , it has mostly been good. If I missed a day I knew fairly quickly and would have a weird sensation where my thoughts took half a second to kind of catch up to what was happening. Anyway, being that I have been on this so long, and sensitive to medication, I have done the tapering extremely slowly. Also, as cutting down tablets can be really inaccurate, I located a local compound pharmacist (after a chat with my gp) so they could break down my tablets to 2.5mg size. I basically have done 10mg and 5mg alternate days for about a month, then 5mg daily for a month, then 5mg and 2.5mg alternate days for a month and now on the last leg @2.5mg daily.
My withdrawals, even though extremely tapered, has been emotional withdrawal. This lasts a few days with each drop down to the next level. I feel like my emotions are sitting just under the surface especially irritability and feeling overwhelmed to where I just want to bust in to tears.
I have to remind myself this is going to pass, it is literally the medical withdrawal. Once I plateau to the next level it seems to come right. Anyway, long spiel but hope this may give some insight to others
