Crazy shit...

The fuckers that made this should have there balls cut off :2 cents:

Day 1 - 13
Dizziness, headache, nausea, bowel softening.

By day 2 or 3: zaps.

By Day 7: dizziness and whoosh effect is more pronounced and challenging.

Sensitivity to internal / external environment increases.

It may feel uncomfortable, but the first week won't be the most difficult.

Day 14 - 1 Month
You're in the thick of things now. Both your emotions and physical self are complaining together. Relax and soothe yourself as much as possible.

Emotion upheaval begins to peak. Dreams, confidence, and attitude are all affected.

Dreams become very active and unpleasant.

Zaps feel worse.

Temporary false suicidal urges occur.

1 Month+
Previous symptoms repeat and may feel worse as you approach 0mg.

If you haven't been keeping notes, you better start now. You will still have a wash of good vs bad days and may not be able to see clearly from one day to the next how you're progressing.

Emotional upheaval still poignant, but patterns emerge and familiarity begins.
Old zaps fade away quicker. They may change flavor a little before stopping however.

3 Monts+
At this point, it's all about struggling for clarity. You're coming out of the depressions/anxieties mostly caused by Paxil and having to determine what level of your own anxiety/depression is there to grow through.
Now you can review your diary of experiences in a complete way, since you're out of the most poignant symptoms of a dosage change, and can choose to reduce dose by another increment knowing what the next 4 weeks will generally be like.

You'll surely notice by this point how sensitive you have become to the world around you.

Anger and frustration are very noticeable.

6 Months+
Anger and frustration may be exhausting but should be fading.

Physical aches may continue along with digestion woes but others will have quieted by now.

Zaps (if any) are infrequent and probably gone.

If you've made it this far or not, you've learned a lot. We hope that you've already spent time working on how you wish to conquer anxiety/depression/OCD from within yourself.

If you haven't already, enjoy the benefits of psychotherapy.

Things should begin to be predictable. You'll still have some bad days but don't let them make conclusions for you. Stay here in the moment and heal.

1 Year+
You've achieved a GREAT deal! Congratulations.

At this point, you should be very well aware of who you are, what works vs what doesn't, and to what degree you still have growth ahead.

If at this time you feel like you haven't progressed to satisfaction, don't fret. Just continue your commitment but consider investigating the usefulness of your methods. Obviously, some may not be working or your approach to ideas and perspectives may need some expansion.

Remember, if you are not where you want to be, it doesn't mean you've failed. It means you have removed some wrong answers and are that much closer to the right ones that will work for you.

Many people consider a year the measurement of their success. We want to remind you that your commitment to live your life the way you believe is the richest, kindness, most generous and loving way, is a continued success. A year is a completely exciting and worthy goal, but don't stop here! Continue to use what you have learned about how you can change yourself, conquer challenges and continue to grow and choose happiness.
