In reply to Stopping SSRIs - An Interesting Thing Happened, posted by IsoM on February 13, 2002, at 18:20:03

I here that all the time from paxil users. And they all say the same thing ... feelings of "Brain Zaps" or "Electric Shocks" when stopping paxil. And it seems pretty unique to paxil.

I always thought it had something to do with paxil being the least selective serotonin agent amongst the ssri's. The withdrawal of norepinephrine reuptake maybe causing this .... but that was just some crazy guess from this WIMPDSP (White Italian Male with Panic Disorder and Social Phobia). Maybe provigil's indirected noradrengeric properties keep you from experiencing the withdrawal symptoms.

Sorry, wish I could do better.


Your Friend,

Spike
