Administrator Altostrata Posted January 6, 2020 Administrator Share Posted January 6, 2020 Do you feel this dizzy-type symptom when you wake up, before you take Paxil? How do you feel now that you increased Paxil slightly? This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.

rola Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 Hello no, I don't feel anything when I wake up. an hour after I wake up, I feel this instability all day. I'm less anxious,I'm driving, but it's the instability that bothers me a lot. but I'm starting to have other symptoms of diarhy insomnia but that's nothing . the only problem is instability. I wanted to ask you,I saw with my pharmacist she can make me 1.65 mg tablet . do you think I can do that? and not to feel any symptoms of switching from the liquid solution to the tablet. it is easier for me to take tablets.

If you failed to do this, It is written, on SA, that u may be shocked by serotonine syndrome. I hope altostrata gives you details about your situation up on her experience but be careful for any move from a drug to drug without enough information and care, having 2 different antidepressants can cause problems ( I think u know all what I said, I just remind u ❤️). Take care of your self . i wasn't on a certain drug all the period. i took many drugs many times and for no very long period but to simplify. --fluvoxamine maleate100 mg + amisulpride 200mg------started july 2012 and total taper in february 2015 ( 9 months without drugs then) --sertraline 100mg -------started november 2015 and total taper (withoud reduction slowly) in november 2016( 4 months withoud drugs then). --sertraline 100mg + quetiabine 25mg ( started in mars 2016 and for 7 months) then fluvoxamine maleate 100mg again for another 7months and after that a something like to use every drug for 14 days and for about 1.5 years. --my last drug was trintellix 10 mg ( used it in 12/2018and total taper in 4/2019). symptomts i have now ( bad concentration and problems in short and long memory+ bad depersonalization).

Administrator Altostrata Posted January 18, 2020 Administrator Share Posted January 18, 2020 It's unlikely there's any Paxil left in your body. Still need to see you daily notes in this format The severity scale doesn't mean anything if I don't know when symptoms are occurring. This is not medical advice.

Administrator Altostrata Posted January 21, 2020 Administrator Share Posted January 21, 2020 You're eating around 5 p.m.? Are you having any alcohol with supper? Caffeine? What milligrams of fluoxetine are you taking? The measurement in mL is not very meaningful to me. After you take fluoxetine, how do you feel? Do you feel any effects from the drug?

Administrator Altostrata Posted January 22, 2020 Administrator Share Posted January 22, 2020 When you write your daily notes, please include when you have significant symptoms. Please put the o'clock on the left side of the line. Your headaches are worse around 5 p.m.? 12 hours ago, rola said: 0.41 ml fluoxetine at 8: 30 am am all morning I would not feel well . Did you feel better before taking fluoxetine but worse afterwards? This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.

Administrator Altostrata Posted January 22, 2020 Administrator Share Posted January 22, 2020 I'm very confused. I need to know how you feel before and after you take fluoxetine. I need to know when your symptoms are better and when they are worse.
