>(PS I put on about 12 pounds with Paxil - but have since managed to lose it - but I wonder if that's because it's not working anymore! I did weight watchers though).<
Hi Jackie,
Was this weight gain in spite of your best efforts? My pdoc attempted to convince me that people gain weight because they feel better and eat more, but I didn't believe that. Did you find you gained weight although your eating and exercise habits hadn't changed?
I started out with 1/4th tablet of Paxil for 2 days and increased to a half (5mgs) last night. So far so good, with no increased anxiety. I'm taking .5 of xanax with it at bedtime. Hope this continues while I build up to a therapeutic dose. Curious about the weight gain though.
Regards,
ZeeZee
