Follow-Up:
I began taking PAXIL 10/07/04 and after reading everything about the withdrawl symptoms, I decided to get off of it 2 weeks later. I've tapered off per my doc's instructions, and have had horrid withdrawl. This is the worst drug on the market (in my opinion) and should be recalled!! I've read so many complaints about this drug that I am surprised it's still being RX'd. They claim it's not addictive. Then why am I having these symptoms? It's funny how I can't get a doctor to prescribe me Valium for those days I have high anxiety, but yet they'll give me PAXIL which is far worse! I'm done with anti-depressants. I'm totally disgusted.
