Changes to Valium and antidepressant during my taper


Recommended Posts

I’m now down to 4mg Valium (day 2) and will hold for 3 - 4 weeks.  My problem is the 10mg (low dose) of Paxil antidepressant I take has stopped working and is making my depression worse.  My psychiatrist wants me to now stop the Paxil and start Cipramil 10mg the next day, however my nerves are kindled and highly sensitive to any medication changes.  I tried to drop the Paxil 5mg this morning and I was a complete mess, additionally I just purchased my Valium elixir liquid which I was hoping to do a slow cross over during the next six weeks but I think it’s too many changes for my body at once. I think maybe after 10 days on this reduction I could possibly cope with the antidepressant changes.  Does changing to liquid Valium cause any problems with the withdrawal symptoms.  Any advice from you guys would be so appreciated right now as I am really struggling with this recent reduction, which was .5mg.
