I am 33 years old. I am taking paxil cr 25 mg (paroxetine) and lorazepam 1 mg (ativan) since 10 weeks. Diagnosed problem - obsessive compulsive disorder. Work- I am have been teaching tuitions by going to people's house since 2009. And teach only 1 student at a time as I am not as perfect in teaching. At day time I am doing no job. And I have done any job. At present I have only 1 tution or student to teach. I think ocd for me is never more than 10% out of 100. I have only general anxiety. At present I sleep from 9: 30 pm to between 5 to 6 am and only wake up in between sleep for 1 or 2 times for urinate. One day I took 0.5 mg lorazepam rather than 1 mg and I still get sleep. The anxiety is not fully cured but it is very much under control and I believe that I can manage to reduce both of these medicine. The problem is passing the whole day without job is feeling boring and little anxiety. I have been running in morning for 20 min since 3 days and walking for 30 min since 50 days. I do sweeping work of my house (jhadu and pocha). I some how manage to pass the day by reading books, doing maths and using mobile. I have been masturbating since 2003 for 2 times a week. But since the anxiety problem started I have done 2 to 3 times a months. Doctor I need your help in reducing the paxil and lorazepam to quit it permanently. Just please tell me how much dose I can reduce or take it alternatively to reduce over time and how many weeks to reduce it. Please reply soon.
