36th Paxil Update - Feeling Very good

August 19, 2026··
taper update
Feeling very good. Been having bouts of tinnitus and fatigue. I forgot to check in yesterday, I have been dealing with a chest cold but feeling good still from being off Paxil. I am worried about some sort of delayed withdrawal but I tell myself to just worry about today.

Thanks for checking in! Staying in today is exactly the right move. Colds and tiring days are hard, but they don't undo your progress, it could actually be from the withdrawal. Let us know how you're doing when the cold clears!
