> > First, I don't want to be an alarmist. Odds are you won't have near the duration that I have had. I seem to be one of the bad cases. Anyways, the really insidious thing is that I start to feel better and then I crash. Very discouraging. As far as "good" feelings, I was never indicated for depression. It was for anxiety. There are moments when I start to feel quasinormal and then eventually I crash. However, the normal feelings seem to be more frequent and the crashes are farther apart. So it is getting better. You just gotta remember that all the weird feelings and emotions are withdrawal. Be very careful about any of the aforementioned feelings or emotions being thought of as a return of depression. That is why so many people don't get off the drugs. First, it causes pain and suffering. Second, they are misdiagnosed or the doctors just aren't familiar with AD withdrawal. Are you on any sort of supplement regimen?

> I am glad to hear that you're having more good days now than bad. Finding out what works for you is a difficult journey through the antidepressant rollercoaster of hell. I just want this sh*it out of me now that I know it's what's been responsible for the side effects that I've been attributing to everything BUT the Paxil.
