Effects of antidepressants?

I got put on Paxil, and I took my first pill at about 4 PM that day. From around 8 to when I fell asleep, I be the happiest I think I've ever been. After that day though it adjectives went downhill. I think I got worse than beforehand. After 3 pills I had to stop because the side effects were horrible. I know it takes just about two weeks to work, but if I had waited that long would that great happiness hold been a constant feeling?

This was give or take a few a month ago, and I told someone it was 20 mg Paxil daily and they told me that's a very full-size dosage used mainly for severe depression and psychosis, neither of which I have.
Answers:    actually, Paxil is prescribed for treating social anxiety disorder far more normally than for depression - and it's NEVER used for psychosis - it's an anti-depressant, not an anti-psychotic...

however, if you have social anxiety disorder, chances are great that it will take a long time for your body to adjust to the medication - it is usually given surrounded by smaller doses at first - gradually upping it every week or so, and the full beneficial effects oftentimes aren't felt until about 6 weeks after instigation the med...

with that said, Paxil has a whole *lot* of side effects, and lots who take it aren't able to handle them, and eventually discontinue the med...even more surprisingly, even if it does work and you can manipulate the side effects, oftentimes, the med stops working altogether even at it's maximum dose...this usually happens anywhere from 1-3yrs from beginning treatment...

btw, believe it or not, for a lot of individuals beside social anxiety disorder, in low doses, *stimulants* are often very effectual - the same meds usually prescribed for people with ADD & ADHD.next to Adderall XR being #1 on the list. Source(s): after over a decade of trying virtually every SSRI and benzodiazepine on the planet, with none of them working, after the *very first dose* of Adderall XR (10mgs), it *completely* eliminate my symptoms...i went from not being able to waddle down my own street or socialize with friends, to being able to sing contained by front of a crowd of 500 - with NO problem! -

btw, despite any "horror" stories you may have heard just about stimulants being dangerous or addictive, they aren't - if they aren't *abused*, that is...

it's very soon 4yrs later, and i still take just 10mgs once a time - and it's still just as effective.

good luck :)

Why can't you stop smoking heroin while..

near medications like this it literally takes a week or two for your body to adjust to it. you wouldnt quality happy like that all the time but you wouldnt be depressed any suppposably. i had the same experience with antidepressants. another entry its really hard to come off of them if you decide to not preserve taking them. i decided its best to just eat glowing and exercise daily instead of meds but good luck! :)

Has anyone used Bromeline Biocaptol?

First, You need to progress see the Doctor again. Tell him about these severe symptoms and ask him if he may have Misdiagnosed you. If he strongly denies Misdiagnosos then research in the order of the drug and your illness by yourself, or go see another Doctor. This is only a possibility, But I strongly recommend taking performance for your personal safety.

Where do you purchase dong quai?

I am just gonna tell you right now. I be on it for 6 months. For the first three everything was great! But.. around the 5th and 6th month, things got weird. I wasn't humanitarian about things i was supposed to care roughly, like people dying and I would cry over idiotic things. It made me the weirdest "frozen" stiff board u'd ever come across and everyone noticed. Paxil is the strongest of all the anti-depressants and not a lot of research have been done it compared to like Anafranil or those older ones. So i really muse u should reconisder becauase that * is wack Source(s): self expiereince
