Dan, I don't blame you for being bitter. I've never had any reactions quite as bad as your experience with Paxil, but I did have a little trouble with Effexor--serious brain fog that made doing my job almost impossible. Then I got used to it but it didn't help the problem for which it was prescribed (visceral hypersensitivity). Getting off of it made the fog come back and I swore I'd never take an antidepressant again! (Now I'm talking about trying Cymbalta, so that should give you an idea of my steadfast resolve!
