Paxil Reviews

This seems to have been the miracle drug for me! Combined with Xanax, it changed my life. No longer afraid of my own shadow, or depressed!

side effect- weight gain
Working / Worked
It worked after getting used to it for about 6 months. But after 10 years on it, I felt no emotion (i.e. no anxiety but also no happiness) so i took myslef off. Unfortunately since my relase this month, I'm contemplating getting back on it.
Working / Worked
I was on it for about 10 years and it really worked. I took myslef off about 1 year ago thinking I finally had my anxiety under control but am considering going back on it if I continue feeling this way and the lorazepam doesnt do it by itself. I think the anxiety is worse this time. Side effects are MASSIVE sex drive ecrease and an overall emoathy (judt dont feel anything, nostress but no happiness either.)
