Paxil withdrawal

Has anyone every trying to get off of paxil experienced extreme cold, your body won't warm up, gagging, and no appetite?  I have gone off of paxil a few times but the last 2 times noticed about 3 months after being off of it my body goes haywire.  Any thoughts would be appreciated!
