How can you tell whether or not Paxil is working?

Posted by UgottaHaveHope on June 6, 2006, at 13:47:46

Im taking 400mg of Seroquel, 40mg of Paxil and 2mg of Klonopin. Im taking all of this for primarily anxiety, and then depression. Been on this combo for a month. What does Paxil feel like when it works? THANKS

If Paxil works for you, you won't have to ask. I experienced it as a stimulating, self-confident feeling-enough stimulation that I thought "am I going to be able to go to sleep?". No problem with sleep whatsoever, and when I'd wake up in the morning, I was excited about getting into the day! Can you imagine how much I miss that med? Best of luck...

Paxil for me was the most wonderful feeling ever. I felt normal. I can't explain it, but I felt even-tempered and normal, I didn't feel freakish, the only way I can explain it is I felt like a normal human being. The only problem was it also made me unable to have sex. Otherwise, I'd still be on it.

I hope you have success on Paxil, and I hope you don't have the weight gain or sexual dysfunction (unless you're a nun, then by all means... *wink*).
