Two years ago, I was diagnosed with borderline clinical atypical depression. I’ve been on 20 mg/day of Paxil ever since.
SSRIs
Medication and Serotonin Syndrome
I was diagnosed with serotonin syndrome while taking Zoloft. After switching to Xanax, the depression and anxiety returned. Next I tried Remeron, which really knocked me out.
Paxil 20 and 30 mg Tablets
Paxil is a treatment for adults with depression and/or anxiety disorders. Paxil is one of a group of medicines called SSRIs (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors). Everyone has a substance called serotonin in their brain.
Paxil’s Efficacy
I am a 32-year-old obese male with mild depression and panic disorder. My therapist of three years has suggested that Paxil would be of great benefit to me.
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) and Risperdal
I suffer from body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). I have been taking Paxil for about a year and it has relieved my depression, but not my delusions or referential thinking.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Paranoia
I was diagnosed with OCD a couple of months ago, even though I have had symptoms since the age of seven. I mentioned to my therapist that during difficult situations, I think people are watching me and that they can sense what is wrong with me.
