I have been taking Paxil for 34 years. My shrink has abruptly ceased it with no allowance for tapering off resulting in anxiety. Any recommendations for something to help me deal with the resulting anxiety?

Your doctor can’t do this to you. It’s imperative that you come off Paxil very very slowly! I’m talking extremely slowly. Have you spoken with the doc after he cut you off? I’ve never heard of this. Why did he do this? You may get very sick.
