    I've tried weaning of paxil a couple of times, but after a week or two-three suffering anxiety and nausea I started back up so I wish I could help you.

    I think it depends on how long you have been taking this medication, the longer you took it, the longer your body probably needs to adjust to being medfree.

    I wish you good luck.

    It is different for each person. For me it lasted quite a while (about a month or so), and it was awful. I wish you the best, and know that you're not alone. HUGS.
