I'm on day 5 no alcohol and it's happening to me! Very similar to the Sertraline withdrawals I've had. I have no idea what's causing it.

Brain zaps are not a common symptom of alcohol withdrawal. Symptoms of alcohol withdrawal typically include tremors, anxiety, sweating, nausea, and confusion. If you experience unusual symptoms such as brain zaps during alcohol withdrawal, it is important to seek medical help promptly.

That's called "Paxil Poopout" on withdrawal forums. Withrawals occur in about 67% of the people tapering off the drug. They include: Severe anxiety, depression, intense dreams/nightmares, suicidal thoughts, nausea, insomnia, dizziness, irritability, anger, sweating, feeling off-balance and clumsy, shaky, twitches and jerks, brain zaps and flashes of light, tinitus, difficulty focusing thoughts, akathisia, dysphoria and more.

Could someone tell me who has been on and then weaned off of Paxil what their brain zaps felt like because mine feel more like body zaps or jolts and I am wanting to know if it is the same thing?

Yes this is the same thing. I am on effexor and get the same side effect if I miss a pill. The jolts aren't harmful, but they are very disconcerting. Check with your Dr to see if they can ween you off more slowly.
