I went cold turkey with paroxetine and found it hard going for a couple of days, i wouldnt advise you do this as youre only 16, i was 32 at the time. I had an upset stomach, pins and needles in my arms and legs and the most horrendous nightmares. They were a lifeline for me and I was on them for nearly 8 years before I felt ready to come off of them, if you are sure that you are ready talk to you gp about the best way to do it, good luck!

Ready now, I took paxil all through my pregnancy, my gp thought it would be better for me to carry on taking it as pregnancy hormones were contributing to my panic attacks, baby was born fit and healthy (despite being Down Syndrome) with no withdrawal symptoms after birth, I was taking 20mg a day.
