That's so funny! I've found that SSRI's only work for me when used with a benzo-I took Paxil with 1 mg Xanax for the best three years of my life! Then I decided I didn't need the Xanax, withdrew from that and the Paxil "didn't work". I think what really happened was that I shouldn't have gotten rid of the Xanax; I say that because I started taking Prozac a few months ago and it didn't work (for panic disorder) until I started taking some Xanax and then poof! it worked great at as low as 5 mg (I'm taking 15 mg now).
But in answer to your question, I found Paxil very stimulating, unlike Prozac. Which is exactly opposite of the rest of the civilized world's experience. :>} That's why I needed the Xanax with it...
