hi everyone
ive been on seroxat for over 12 years and have now started to taper off them. i find the easiest way is to taper off these drugs is easier by tapering 10% every 6 weeks or so. i was on 20 mg and i am now just starting to taper to 9mg.
ive had a few minor withdrawal issues such as tiredness, irrational thoughts and sleepness nights, oh and sinus issues, but have been quite mild.
im now on seroxat liquid and using a syringe to get dose right.
so far i feel good , after 4 attempts at coming off it im finally thinking im winning this battle:)

I've been on seroxat for 5 years and tapered slowly and been completely off seroxat for the last 8 months. I've had many side effects including panic attacks, lost of balance in the head, dizziness, was not able to drive, my world was going nuts. Now 8 months later, I still feel dizzy at times and slighly blurred vision. Has anyone else felt like this when tapering off?
