Paxil (paroxetine): I have only been taking Paxil for 9 days now. I really can't tell much difference except I feel a little better. I have read what others have said and it seems promising so I'll keep taking it so maybe soon I can function. My anxiety has pretty much taken over and I don't leave the house without another person to drive in case, it's terrible. With any luck soon that will no longer be an issue. I'll come back in a week or 2 and let you know.

Paxil (paroxetine): This drug has saved my life. I tried reducing slowly, but my anxiety had come back. Without Paxil I had severe anxiety that was just awful. Could not function or work or anything. Paxil has brought my life back to me.

paroxetine: This generic works but it sure doesn't work as well as Paxil CR. The generic isn't as potent. But it's less expensive. Paroxetine seems to work for O.C.D. very well, but the weight gain sure can be a bummer. You can be tired after taking it too; so I take it at night to help me get a good sleep.

Paxil (paroxetine): Taking 20mg. Thought it was starting to help at about the 2nd to 3rd week but now my anxiety is back. Also have faintness daily. Don't know if it is from the Paxil or the anxiety but it started the same time I started the Paxil.

Paxil (paroxetine): This medication has probably saved my life. Before using it my anxiety was so severe it put many limitations on my life. I foolishly tried to reduce it twice, and the uncontrollable symptoms returned. I just increased it back to the original 20 mg/day and hope it works once again very soon.
