Hi Space!

I just started taking Paxil as advised by the hospital, been on it for 2 weeks, so far I feel different, a slightly good different. I am on a low dose 10mg, and tend to keep it that way cause I feel this is working for now. Antidepressants after being on Celexa, and Cymbalta, my faith in them had lowered. When I entered the hospital after being on low potassium, I was also being treated for extreme anxiety, to which I was given Paxil. Try Zoloft, see how you feel after 3 weeks. It might make a whole of difference for you! But remember everyone is different, and our brain chemistry are different, so if Zoloft doesn't work for you, time for something different. Just make sure to ask for a low dose first to get used to the medicine with minimal side effects.
