I am so fucking scared right now, it's not even funny. For the last 3-4 four days my psychiatrist upped my Paxil. I feel like I have a fever, my bones hurt I have tremors and my skin feels like insects are bursting out of it. This would be bad enough to deal with, oh and the electric shocks, but in all seriousness I vividly hallucinate 24/7 - or so I believe , I am not psychotic , I honestly am wondering if I have made touch w the afterlife. This is so overwhelming and I am just trying to stay fucking clean man. Start my business up in full swing.

I cannot go to the ER and be all "I see dead people" - boom - section 12/ed. I am not about to lose my mind being stuck in a cell for 3 days when I know this is a severe reaction to the medication at week 3 1/2 (perfect timing).

I honestly just dont know what to do anymore, I feel my best friends are the ones who no1 else can see becauese at least they do not look at me like im a disease because I have problems, my family has problems but man they can lash out when I am at my weakest point.

I hope you are all doing well, I am fucking so tired I have slept maybe 3-4 hours last 4 days beingso terrified.

Please stop taking the dosage of paxil that you're using. When was your last dose? As I look at this link, these are side effects that are pointing towards that fact you should definitely stop for now.
 
Taow buddy, call your psychiatrist first thing, he has probably dealt with this before. Maybe take a bath (sounds ridiculous but works,) watch a comforting movie (finding nemo :)) and maybe contact a friend or sibling to just chill with, my family is like yours and it might be best to kind of keep things on the down low from them.

Most importantly don't use, whatever you may reach for could seriously react with your already overwhelming reaction to paxil.

Hang in there dude,

It seems like too much Paxil has put you over the edge. Phone your physician tomorrow and explain your symptoms.
I'm hoping by morning you'll be out of the zone, either way stop using this dosage and see what your doctor can do to help.
Hang in there. You're not crazy, just overmedicated. <3
 
Don't use, if for no other reason than you know that doing something as risky as going out and obtaining drugs should only be done (if at all...) with a clear and rational mind. You could really make a mess of things if you try and find street drugs in a state like this.

You're in a good position right now recognising that it's all an effect of the medication. Keep repeating this to yourself, and use it as something to hold onto, to keep you grounded.

I know the lack-of sleep thing is awful. Would something as innocent as doxylamine succinate be able to help get you to sleep? I don't want to suggest anything hard, but that has always worked for me.

Message me if you need to talk.
 
J, 2 Paxil, just 2, sent me right over the edge into a cop car for the 1st and only time. Same things you're experiencing, hallucinations, just flipping out, babbling at 1000 words/sec, etc, etc
I am praying you got to your psych doc and are safe. I'm so sorry that this is happening to you.
Please text, call, msg me when you can, let me know you're ok. Been so caught up in my son's troubles, I've been MIA and am sorry.

drug induced psychosis...you need to call your doctor immediately and STOP taking the paxil...your life could be in great risk.
 
I know it's really subjective, but if that were me, I'm confident I would immediately taper the Paxil dose, and consider a new psychiatrist. Or an alternative method of therapy. Hard to say which one caused your reaction, but I hope you are doing better today. Best of luck, man
