Date: Thu Mar 29, 2001 0:39am I am also suffering with trying to get off Paxil. I had nightmares too. I knew it was the drugs. I am currently withdrawing (tapering) my dosage to eventually become whole again. the really scary nightmares lasted probally about a month and a half. I feel mad as hell, I was given this drug Paxil at a crisis center. never was I once informed of addiction, side-effects, or withdrawal symptoms, or given a choice to take it or not, they only told me I had a chemical imbalance and needed to be on it. I would love to be involved in a lawsuit against the company SKB. Charlotte
