side effects of Paxil

I was on 25mg of Paxil and my doctor had me taper off taking 1 every other day for
2 weeks. I took my last pill a week ago and now I am having dizziness and nausea.
Is this normal and will this last much longer? Any suggestions or comments?

Yes I think it lasts about 3 weeks.  Then you should come back to yourself.
