Withdrawal effects after 5 years still?

Paxil

I stopped taking Paxil around 5-6 years ago . I was on it for about 8 years and would take it around 8pm. shortly after I stopped (I weaned off rather quickly ) I would get like withdrawal symptoms around 8pm … a rush of anxiety and would get the sweats . I have tried diff meds since then and taken at diff times and while on these meds I did not deal with this 8pm rush of anxiety. However now I am off all meds and around 8pm now daily I get these same symptoms of withdrawal the sweats and rushes of anxiety. Should I take Paxil again at same dose and taper off extremely slowly and maybe this will go away ? I can’t deal with it anymore
