I have asked this question on the other forums but wanted to get some opinions on this site. I managed to get stuck on Remeron back in July 2011 after being off Paxil for 2.5 months. I am currently at 4.2mg. I am concerned that the Remeron is impeding my paxil recovery. What do you all think about this? I also want to get off the Remeron but can't seem to drop very quickly without grave consequences. I was dropping 10% or so every 3 weeks but have now stayed at 4.2mg for 5 weeks. I just don't want to "rock the boat."
I am still an emotional mess from paxil. All the usual psych symptoms. I am also wondering now if the axiety may be akathesia. Akathesia seems to be very hard to define as it is different for everyone. I do have the burning skin sensation back but more mild I think.
I am 18 months off paxil and really have had a tough time of it. I had some pretty big life events happen during my time on Paxil and now I am dealing with it emotionally and it brutal. I do have the horrible mornings but better evenings experience.
