Is this your only problem? Paxil is the hardest antidepressant to stop taking, and you quit abruptly instead of tapering off slowly. But if lack of sleep is your only problem you actually did pretty well. I don't know that I can help you with the sleep, I've never found a solution to it. You're having a long-term withdrawal problem. You can go back on it and taper off more slowly and see if that helps, or you could try taking melatonin and natural relaxants such as valerian or homeopathic remedies and see if it helps. Do you exercise? Have you tried taking fish oil?
