06 Oct 2015 This was a very, very bad experience. I was completely unable to sleep longer than 1 hour at a time. Over the 5 months I was taking this, that sleep loss added up. I was tired all the time, could not eat due to severe nausea, and saw things that were not there (this was confirmed by my husband). I was nervous all the time, and in fact, the only thing that calmed me down was coffee. I could not feel anything and my emotions were totally inappropriate. Two of our close friends were killed in a car accident and I laughed. It wasn't until I got off of it that I was able to grieve their deaths. I didn't know where I was, lived in a perpetual dream mind-fog state that made everything surrealistic, and was not myself. I could not take it anymore and quit cold turkey... spent 3 days suicidal (which I never have been) while going through withdrawl. I truly thought I was going to die. It took several months to feel "normal" again, but the brain fog has never gotten better: I've just gotten used to living in a dream world. Only after taking GABA was I able to sleep again. I wish I never would have taken it.

06 Jan 2013 I like Paxil at first. But I have been on it so long I do believe my body is use to it, so its not working as well as before.

27 Nov 2012 I was put on Paxil for panic disorder. The anxiety was so bad, I became agoraphobic and couldn't leave my house. I was very reluctant to take it, but I am so glad I did. It's now four months later and I am going out of town on day trips. My anxiety is almost completely gone. I even registered for college next semester. I went from being stuck in my house in fear of the world to a completely different person in just a short amount of time. I'm actually getting things done, for once. I only want to slap myself for not seeking help sooner. I have only gained 5 pounds since starting it and I also stopped exercising and I eat like crap (because I'm happier), so I think I would have gained the 5 pounds regardless. No change in sexual performance. I'm still as horny as ever and I can get off. I actually can't think of any side effects, but then I am only on 10 mg.
