Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
What do you mean by "interesting" side effects?
Shakes. Tremors, hyper sensitive skin, Tired ness, Drowsyness, heavy muscles, being unable to sleep properly, mild hallucinations or what I can only refer to a s a half asleep half awake dream like state.
So far...
hope I dont get those effects, couldn't possibly deal with that at work, let alone outside my job....
emmm.......
I used to feel very light headed and kind of disconected when I first started it. Kind of like when you have a cold.
But now I have no side effects. Only thing is this...don't stop taking it suddenly!!! You will have the most humungous headache of your life if you do.
I have gained soem weight, but if I stay active and eat better then it comes off again...
I have to take Remeron at night foir the restlessness and sleeplessness...but Paxil didn't cause those things inme...only intensified them as I already had them...LOVE MY REMERON!!!!
No anxiety for 24 hours and I can sleep great (most of the time)
I haven't slept well for the past month because my Paxil dose had been decreased and it was decreased too much so I went off track, but I am already feeling better 3 days into the higher dose.
I hope it works for you.
