Hi, just found this BBS as I browsed for info on Effexor XR. I've been on Paxil 20mg/d for two months. Alcohol abuse led to a breakdown during Easter (now 10 days sober), and subsequent sobriety led me to my first real indication of what Paxil was doing to me: making me worse.
My GP diagnosed me with depression... the deeper i went on Paxil, the more i was convinced i suffer from bipolar disorder. TOday, he finally listened to me, and prescribed XR. I have yet to take any. It should be quite a ride toward the lighter side, i hope.
Great discussion here... I'll be back to read more and share if necessary.
