The medical Condition, not the  U2 song ;-p
In a previous post I was explaining about the withdrawal symptoms I am having after I stoping paxil, Vertigo is one of those symptoms.

When you feel things are dizzily turning around or things are dizzily turning about you, that is the vertigo feeling. It is very common to have that symptom after you stop taking paxil, it can also mean a problem with the inner ear.

I was having some problems with my ear a couple of weeks ago, I was feeling some pressure inside my ear ; it was like I had something in it. I did some research about it and I putted some oxygen water inside my ear three times a day and the pain when away,but  it wasn’t really pain I was feeling , it was just bothering me at the moment I had to open my mouth or speak.

I also stop taking paxil a month ago, which is about the time I started feeling vertigo… But I also had the same ear problem months ago… I don’t remember exactly when… hmmm.

what could the reason be?

I stop taking Paxil a month ago, I did have some withdrawal symptoms like nausea, dizziness, vertigo, mood swings. Most of those symptoms have stop after one month, but I still have vertigo and mood swings.

The vertigo doesn’t bothers me as much as the mood swings… I mean going from happiness to a sad stage is a very frustrating situation.  During my PMS! my Goodness, it is a roller coaster of emotion.

Why women have to go through so many things? I don’t think men have so many problems with their moods, they are angry, happy, sad; but we in the other hand have what is in between, angry-happiness, sadness-happiness, angry-sadness, etc. Sometimes we don’t even know what emotion we are feeling…

Men have to be very patient with women sometimes, how do they do it? if sometimes I can’t even stand myself.

I guess lowering the doses, helped me to stop taking paxil. After a month, sometimes before I go to bed I feel like I’m forgetting something, but then I remember ”hey I don’t have to take any pills again!!” I am Paxil Free ;-p
