Saltines help me with the nausea too.
Spearmint and peppermint help with nausea.
I take CBD/CBG oil. The CBD counters the almost too relaxed feeling one can get from CBD. There are many companies that have this concoction for sale. Just Google it. I take an antidepressant and it works well with this hemp product for extra help with anxiety.
I had the same problem tapering off its cousin cymbalta. Ginger gum helped a little. My doctor prescribed anti-nausea pills which also helped. I finally had to grit my teeth and tough it out. Unfortunately CBD and related products do nothing for me. I have tried multiple forms and combinations with THC. These products must be bought through state-sanctioned dispensaries in my state.
Hello,
I tried tapering off Paxil and could not handle it. I went back to the therapeutic dose and experienced nausea and a lot of anxiety with agitation. I was extremely tired. My Psychiatrist explained that when tapering and then going back to the original dose one experiences many uncomfortable residual effects due to our brains readjusting again. Antidepressants are very powerful when it comes to the chemistry in our brains.

I have the nausea and lack of appetite for sure. The anxiety that comes with withdrawal adds to it. I tried ginger lozenges, but found the taste awful! There's nothing much that has helped besides Saltine crackers. I can't wait to be off this med and put the horrible symptoms of withdrawal behind me. Good luck!
