Hi, My first post. I had a heart attack on 6/8/02 and was taken off the meds I was on. They want let me take the older meds which worked in the past so we have tried alot of the newer ones which haven't worked. I suffer w/deperission and anixity. presently on 30 mg. of remeron. it helps some but not with the anixity which I feel is more of a problem. anyway my pdoc wants to add paxil. Anyone tried this ??????

Hi rtop, i was on remeron+paxil once. Sure paxil may help you, it didn't help so much for me but i also suffer from social phobia which adds more anxiety. And i can't stand the sexual SE of ssri's, so i'm currently on klonopin for anxiety/SP and it works great. But i think you should consider paxil as a first line of treatment and not everyone is bothered by sexual SE, give it a shot!
good luck.

Paxil was my first successful run on an Anti-Depressant. It helped alot with my anxiety-enough so that my friends could tell when I stopped taking it. Worst side effect was anorgasm. Worst complaints I hear about Paxil now is weight gain and withdrawal. My husband in on Paxil with no problems at all.
