"About 5 months ago, I took 15 mg daily doses of Paxil for 6 weeks. Then I cut back to taking the doses every 3 days for 2 weeks and then stopped. "Depersonalization, feeling as though everything around me is 'happening' but I am not physically part of it (Paxil, 40mg)" "I was the mother of a beautiful, vivacious child until June 7th of this year. My 12 year old daughter was on this medication for 8 months and within the first two weeks of being on it, she began to have adverse reactions. Now, that I look back I can see how it slowly took her life. She was the strongest willed child I've ever known. She was withdrawing from it for only 10-14 hours the day she quietly went into her bedroom and took her own life by hanging herself. This was a total shock to the whole community since she was the last child anyone ever expected to do such a thing. This drug needs to be completely taken off the market or the potential of suicidal ideation or violent behavior needs to be listed as one of the top adverse reactions associated with withdrawing from this medication." "I go to sleep at night, but wake up every 2 hours or so for an hour." "All my doctors always recommend SSRIs no matter WHAT my problem is. I hate doctors because their answer to everything is SSRI. "PAXIL CAUSED ME TO BLACK OUT/NOT REMEMBER A THING FROM NIGHTS PRIOR. SLEEP WALKING. NAUSEA, DIZZINESS AND NIGHT SWEATS." "Headaches all the time. paranoid all the time while taking Paxil. sick all the time.... extreme pains in stomach....sleepy all the time.... cant concentrate on much.... off it now, and my nerves are shot... shaking all the time, still sleepy, still cant concentrate.. Constantly looking out the window, because of being paranoid (during and after taking Paxil)... feeling really stressed.... anxiety attacks ALL the time now (never before I took them)... many others, too, but they were listed...." "Paxil-Suicidal ideation & attempts while withdrawing." "When drinking alcohol I get extremely drunk from the Paxil and very violent." "On Paxil for 6 weeks. Pain in upper back and shoulder (right-side). Very heavy and tired feeling. Now I have Tietze's syndrome too, very painful. All I feel in this body is pain, pain, pain. "63 yr old female. Stroke 1 yr ago. Depressed and went on Paxil. My speech was affected and I have trouble finding the words I wanted to say. Now I am even worse since taking this drug." "Taking Paxil for 2 months. I have been clenching my jaw when I am sleeping, and biting the inside of my cheek." "I have been off Paxil for 3 years and still have severe side effects including vestibular disorders. I feel like the room and I are in constant movement and rocking, have had severe vertigo and muscle twitches fatigue and insomnia. All since the Paxil." "Paxil: I had pooped my pants and didn't know until I felt squishy down there.(3rd day after use)" "I have been taking Paxil for over 6months I gained 25 lbs and I am very active and weight lifting I still have night sweats." "I had an episode that looked like a "seizure" without shaking or loss of bowels like a normal seizure. I had 2 EEG's and an MRI (both were normal). I will have to have my license revoked b/c they could not determine what caused it. It happened 2 1/2 week after I started taking Paxil." "I started Paxil at the end of August, and stopped taking it at the end of October. I went through hell on it, several major side-effects, and absolutely no positive effects. "Paxil caused so many mental changes in my ex-husband that I divorced him. He began excessive shopping sprees, dating other women, blaming me for money problems, denying his excessive spending. He also became addicted to sex that he still continues to have multiple partners weekly." "Since this is a blind testimonial, Only thing I have to say is that I've been on the medication for about 10 days now. My panic attacks are few and far between, but I get very antsy for no apparent reason, the doom gloom thoughts, I'm a very positive person when looking to other alternatives in depression, but I've been freaking out for no apparent reason, I think my heart's going to stop or explode... I just wish I could calm down and not worry about my next episode." "I was only on 20mg for 3mo. stopped abruptly and now I have occasional spells of vertigo, facial tingling and what feels like stretching and jerking of my face and brain, though there is no visible movement. It has been three weeks now and it happens 2 to 4 times daily for approx. 2 to 10 minutes." "I took Paxil for about a year or even more. I now am experiencing some weird feelings of suicide but, I don't go with it I just try to remember that I'm a Mom. The Dr. put me on Paxil because, I was very depressed and always very anxious and also very forgetful so for the longest time I thought that I was going crazy but now that I found that I'm not I will tell my new doctor about my side effects that I'm having." "Constipation, bloating and weight gain since taking Paxil." "Slightly weird buzzy feeling; excessive daytime yawning and jaw clenching. Grinding my teeth at night. Dry sinuses. No other noticeable effects except an improvement in my mood."
