Anxiety
"Hello again everyone! I have been on Paxil now for 9 weeks and it has still been a very beneficial addition to my life. I&#039;ve started to feel like the real me now. I don&#039;t feel subdued or Zombied out like some people report. I started on 10mg then my Dr. moved me to 20mg about 2 weeks ago. The only main side effect I&#039;ve had in transitioning to the higher dosage was severe mania for the first couple of days. It wore off significantly as the days passed. As for the weight gain that &quot;Paxil causes&quot;, I think it&#039;s just that I&#039;m not so anxious to the point of nausea and disgust in food. I love eating and enjoy my food again! My biggest positive in Paxil is that my generalized anxiety is SEVERELY reduced. Panic attacks are down 85% and I feel great!"
