Tips for reducing/coping with SSRI withdrawal symptoms?!
Question: Tips for reducing/coping with SSRI withdrawal symptoms!?
Any things that combat withdrawal, besides tapering off slowly (which I'm doing)!? I've been tapering off slowly, but i still get withdrawal, because I've been taking SSRIs (zoloft, then paxil) for 2 years!. Pretty much 1 year each!. My doctor gave me 10mg paxils that I can split, so I followed his tapering off program, but I finished them all after splitting into 5mg and 2-1/2mg!. Getting withdrawl now after a month of tapering, i have backup paxil to slice into 5mg to help me, but I still get withdrawal from time to time with such a small dose!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Could you take the half 5mg pills every third or fourth day for a while, to eliminate the withdrawals, then gradually increase it to fifth, sixth, seventh!.!.!. and finally off!?
