Maybe it's time to talk to your doctor about the side effects you are experiencing. I haven't taken these two combos but I would contact my doctor if I was experiencing these side effects. There are a lot more medications out there. The older tricyclics helped me with depression and insomnia but every one is different on medications. Talk to your doctor.
If you withdraw slowly off the Paxil and keep up with your sleep, it should be okay. A slow process but better than going along the way you are now. Your doctor has way more knowledge than me about this. Also, this board is wonderful for help on meds.
I'm very sorry about the death of your daughter. Losing a child at any age is awful. I have been going through something along this line when a friend's child who died at 10 and can only imagine what you are feeling. Please know you are in my thoughts. Try to look after yourself.
Take care.
