In reply to Is Paxil addictive and also is it effective?, posted by Ted on March 20, 2000, at 23:10:42
I've taken Paxil for 10 years for severe anxiety disorder. Once I ran out of my medication and thought I didn't need it anymore. I was wrong and the withdrawel symptoms were awful.
More recently it stopped working altogether and my medication was doubled. It was the single most horrible experience I have ever had.
Ask your doctor for something else. Even though it may not effect you this way...why take a chance. Good luck.
