Switching from Zoloft to Paxil. Any success stories on Paxil appreciated!
Floater
I take Paxil. This is my second go round on it. First time was in 1999 - 2000 for 18 months. I weaned myself off it over 4 months and had no issues.

Second time I started in Oct 2007 and am still on it, almost 2 years now. I have recently reduced the dosage from 20 mgs a day to 10mgs. I am not sure that I feel as well on the lower dose, but wanted to try.

I do feel much better on it, very little anxiety, no panic at all. On the smaller dose I do feel anxiety more often that I did.

I did gain weight while on it, but I was also using Prometrium which also causes weight gain. Since reducing the Paxil and cycling P vaginally instead of orally AND really watching what I eat and walking I have lost 20 pounds.
