All I can say is don't do it...DGL works better and is recommended when tapering off the PPIs.

Hey @LostinCanada Thanks loads for that, I had a niggle in my mind, but just couldn't pinpoint

it, but YES I had seen negative things about the PPI, but even now cannot remember where I saw it.

SO NO it doesn't get collected then. Yes I use Ginger which is good, can't seem to get hold of DGL but

I will keep trying. The thing is I am 14 months OFF and can't believe how I am still suffering this. Maybe

my diet needs tweaking a bit more.

So after a horrific awakening after 3 hours sleep, up out of bed onto the laptop and I miraculously come

around good. Weird stuff, in a good way for once. But hey LIC thanks immensely for that, your presence

on here in our lives is priceless, we love you so much, I sincerely hope you are doing better through this

horrible journey we are all on. God Bless.

Take care and please stay safe, B.🙏💙

OK, I am sorry that this was so long, but it may help you or others who struggle with cortisol spikes. It helped me a lot to find this out.

Take care!

Hi @Nemina a huge thanks for that, and no it wasn't long. Yes I totally understand you on the diet, and I

will admit to being pretty hopeless on that score. Mirt give me T2D so I am watching sugar anyway, high

histamine has to be avoided as well.....to be honest it's a bloody minefield. What about pure protein powder

with zero additives? as in a cheaper form of protein. I think I need a slowcooker to throw a heap of veg & chicken

in and take it from there. Hey thanks Nemina I hope you are doing OK, we are ALL together and will get through this.

Take great care, B.🙏🤞

Morning all, well awake at midnight again in a horrific state, after 3 hours broken sleep on a 0.

Stomach was horrendous as well, but after getting up and onto the laptop I unbelievably came

around🤞up to a 3, stomach still a bit iffy but I will have a walk out now 2.50am by the time I get

out. Not sure what weather is doing, but I will soon find out, was very wet last night.

So lets see what today brings, feeling more positive at the minute, lets see where I am when I

get back? catch you later.

Take care, B.🤞

I am on a low histamine diet….the biggest thing is to cook super fresh or frozen….leftovers have to be frozen. Histamine continues to increase in cooked foods, processed ones…canned foods are extremely bad. Even bread, baked goods need to be eaten within 24 hours or frozen. Milk products can be a problem for many…it really is a trial and error for many things.

Believe it or not, slow cooking increases histamine too. I make tons of chicken soup with fresh veg but cook it fast and then freeze it in portion sizes.

Well back off 2.50am walk, dry out for now, more rain on the way, 9c so warm. Well my mind

still seems settled, just CANNOT believe it really, from the state it was when I woke up. ALL the

negativity GONE, (for now at least) So I am going back to bed for a bit of Youtube, no chance of

any more sleep, well I don't want any anyway or I will jinx this better mood. Catch you all later.

Sept 1993 Began paroxetine 20 mg for anxiety and depression- worked like a charm.

1st taper - Aug 1995 tapered over 3 weeks before getting pregnant- great at first, crashed at one month. White knuckled it through 2 miscarriages. Spring 1996 (?) Reinstated paroxetine 20 mg.

2nd taper- Spring 2008 tapered off paroxetine over 4 months. Summer 2008 crashed horribly, nearly incapacitated by WD; Summer 2008-Summer 2009 tried 4 different ADs, none as effective as paroxetine. Summer 2009 Reinstated 20 mg paroxetine, not as effective as previously.

3rd taper- Jun 19, 2019 began 10 mg paroxetine, 10 mg fluoxetine for one week. Jun 26 20 mg fluoxetine, 5 mg paroxetine for one week. Jul 3- 20 mg fluoxetine + lorazepam (0.5 mg) as needed up to 2x/day. Aug 12- 30 mg fluox; Sept 3- .5 mg clonazepam daily; end lorazepam; Sept 5- 40 mg fluox;

End of 2019- returned to paroxetine 20 mg/day most of the year, 30mg/day in the winter.

BEGIN 4th TAPER ATTEMPT: Jul 13 2025- 30 -> 25 mg; 10 Sept -> 22.5mg; 3 Oct -> 20 mg; 10 Oct -> hold 2 weeks; 2 Nov -> 19.5 mg; 9 Nov -> 19 mg; 16 Nov -> hold 1 week; 22 Nov -> 18.6 mg; 30 Nov -> 18.2 mg; 7 Dec -> hold 1 week; 14 Dec -> 17.8 mg; 21 Dec -> 17.5 mg; 28 Dec -> 17.1 mg; 4 Jan 2026 -> 16.7 mg -> hold 2 weeks ; 28 Jan -> 16.4 mg; 1 Feb -> 16.0 mg; 8 Feb -> 15.7 mg; 15 Feb -> hold 2 weeks; 1 Mar -> 15.5 mg; 8 Mar -> 15.2 mg; 15 Mar -> hold; 5 Apr -> 14.9.

Thanks @Chippy Well I went and got another 90 minutes sleep, unexpected, and like I said it's thrown

my mood back a bit. Not catastrophic, but back to a 1 maybe, now I haven't eaten yet so that could make

things better or worse. Healing is happening hence the changes so it's just a case of keep plodding.

Good you got a bit more sleep mate! But yes the sleep reset is real. If I get more than base sleep, burning brain! What is with sleep! 🤷‍♂️

Hi all, well the day has been better than yesterday, dropped to a 2 after the extra sleep, then

as the day went on lifted to a 3 maybe. So not horrible but not brilliant either, seemed to have

Mirt hunger which has spoiled things a bit, this false hunger needs to disappear for recovery

to come about. So I guess it's just keep on plodding as best we can.

Love you guys @NT1100B @Chippy @cheeky

I needed this. 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️

We love you too .

On Paxil since 1995. Seroquel added 2014 after withdrawal crash. History of too-fast tapers/reinstatements.

21 April 2025 taper two drugs at once

Paxil 4% Seroquel 3.5% per month

that ended up being too much and changed to one drug at a time

13 Jul 2025: 4% Paxil cut

29 Jul 2025: 5% Paxil cut

6 Aug 2025: began hold

Oct 2025: changed from liquid to powder and accidentally took 10x Seroquel dose for 2 weeks by mistake

23 Oct 2025: returned to liquid with accidental 4.7% Seroquel cut

Holding both drugs to stablize

Holding at Paxil 8.25 mg / Seroquel 6.5

Paxil taper
