SSRI's don't help with sleep in my experience. I've used Paxil for 14 years and Celexa for 6 months. I now use 5-HTP and L-Theanine in place of the SSRI's.

If you are having serious anxiety issues, an SSRI may useful. But, it is not simple decision. There are side-effects and most have additional symptoms when they stop the SSRI. I don't believe in SSRI's being prescribed by anybody but a psychiatrist or other doctor with extensive understanding of SSRI's. Family docs, most neuros, and PCP's should not be prescribing them, in my view.
