I reach down for 3 seconds to find the shampoo and guess what... by the time I stand up my vision is all yellow for about 1 minute, my hearing becoming subdued, and I am trying to balance myself against the clear glass in the shower so I dont fall over. Not to mention my ability to think/concentrate would be very compromised.

Just like I cannot handle over 12mg Paxil (in the past) without feeling tremendously sleepy all the time.how long were you at that dose? it might be an indication that you were finally reaching an effective dose. If you didn't before, i'd go back to 30 and wait a few weeks for the side effects to dissipate. then to 40, etc.
