I have paxil 10mg. Family does not believe me or friends about condition. Please,please some advise on meds. Trying to first get off paxil and then valium. I have to get better to avoid action by family. I don't drive and am limited in functioning at home. Please you have been so kind. susu on SSRI's/benzo for 25 years plus, recently pull off them too suddenly by Pysc nurse last year was switched from lexapro, zoloft, viibryd,paxil.
