Paxil withdrawal

I’ve been tapering Paxil CR for the past 3 months. I successfully went from 37.5mg to 12.5mg. But when I went from 12.5mg to nothing on day 4 I started having anxiety again and other severe withdrawals like dizziness, diarrhea flu like symptoms but mostly mood swings and anxiety. So on day 6 of withdrawal I decided to go back to 12.5mg. Took it today in the morning. Question! When will I start feeling better? When will withdrawals especially anxiety start easing up?

Withdrawal Paxil

So I’ve been on Paxil for about 8 months for ppd and ppa. I was on 40mg for 4 months then I switched to 37.5 CR. I was on that for 3 months. After I felt better for a good time I decided to go down. I went from 37.5 to 25mg for a month then 25mg to 12mg for a month then stayed on 12.5mg for about 3 weeks then I have been off Paxil fully for 5 days. Going down doses the only withdrawal I used to get was dizziness and sweating for like a week then I felt better. But being off Paxil completely day 4 and 5 have been so hard. I’ve been having all the withdrawal symptoms from dizziness, sweating, flu like symptoms, sleep disturbances but on day 4 and 5 mood swings and anxiety has been so bad. I feel on edge. I don’t know is it’s a withdrawal symptoms or cause I’m off Paxil that my anxiety came back. My dr is telling me to go back to 12.5 today or wait 2 weeks to see if the anxiety is a withdrawal and it will go away. But if I wait 2-3 weeks then start Paxil again I would have to go through side effects again. Should I go back now to 12.5mg will that help with the withdrawal or should I wait and see? Please help
