Brain. Fingers. Emotion. Computer?

The Paxil Taper Caper

Since the beginning of July 2007 I have been diligently tapering off Paxil… ever so s-l-o-w-l-y. These past few weeks have been the roughest. The first few months of tapering were doable, tolerable and generally well received by my mind, body and soul.

I am broken gobbly-gook or how I am learning what I can and can not do.
