What has helped me for anxiety is paxil. I take 20 mg. every morning; I have heard it keeps people awake when taken late in the day. I never have problems falling asleep (well, maybe once in a great while when I get overtired).
There are the usual side effects in the libido area, and I do have more vivid, action-oriented dreams, but I think that's about it.
Have you ever taken paxil? Also, and very important, do you have a therapist you like?
Take care of yourself.
Nibor> I have had one hell of a year this year and I was told I had a nervous breakdown in June of this year (2000). I was put on Remeron, but I seemed to be irritated easily and put on weight. I am now starting Serzone and taking Xanax for the anxiety. Sometimes I feel incompacitated and I feel that my family is paying for it. I just don't know what to do. The anxiety is driving me crazy. I've never had any problems like this before and I don't know what to do. I do pray for help, but it just seems like the minutes don't pass fast enough.
