paxil
He offered help me to sweep the floor/yard. Hanging and picking up the clothes. He also concentrated on the weather make sure he picked up the clothes before it rained. He'll miss if he slept all the day long! LOL. He liked sleep (usually longer hour than us). He said to me, when getting old all the bones shrink, so can feel the body aching. He said exercise is important. Even he was on the bed, he also moving his toes and fingers a lot.
I had no problem with the Zoloft for 14 years and I am back on it now and have recovered from all of the phyciatric effects of this medication change. The Paxil on the other hand in my opinion is a dangerous drug. If you send for the side effect list from the drug company itself and not the pharmacy one because it doesn't list them all, then you will see all the horible side effects that this drug can cause. I am living proof that it does cause these things.
Go with lots and lots of fiber, at least the minimun daily requirement and this should help unless she is developing IBS. Try this and if it doesn't work have her see a GI dr.

On 40 Paxil and 100 lamictal. Klonopin only when I need which I haven't in the last few days. so it looks like the paxil is kicking in, BUT I don"t like what I have read about Paxil.
Has anyone ever felt a horrible vulnerable feeling? Kind of like you would feel if u were standing naked in the middle of a huge crowd... I always get this terrible feeling. I always have ever since I was little and now I'm 23. I don't know what it is. It is sometimes accompanied by rapid heart beats, nausea, blurred vision, and dizziness and can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 5 hours. But it is seriously the worst feeling in the world!!
i take paxil also and i get the shakes, usually they're worse in the morning. i think it could be your meds or your anxiety or both. take care.
t go now his body will force him to go eventually and it may be too late. By nipping things in the bud we can prevent any serious problems in the future. You should also get him on probiotics either a supplement or yogurt enriched with it. We are more apt to develop polyps after the age of 50 and that's why they suggest we start having colonoscopies at age 50.
Okay. You've made it complicated. You must take the dose at the same time every day. All ssris other than Prozac do leave the body fairly quickly, though not that quickly, but there are people who suffer withdrawals when they miss a dose. By not taking your dose at the same time you are essentially missing doses. But the problem is, everything you're reporting is a possible side effect of taking antidepressants.
Hi. 5'10" Gent, and brand spankin newbie to this site. i just turned 56 in April. In my journal August. 12, 2013, I recorded wgt. 247.5 lb, BP 157/101, severe depression & anxiety with heaart palpitations and mid-nightime panic attacks. Also using CPAP setting of 14cm for severe sleep apnea, and suffered almost daily migraines. Plus my triglicerides were, as my dr put it, "through the roof!
hello again,
as some may know on this forum, i was on klonopin for 4 months .25 am/pm. i did great on it! i started feeling a little anxious a few weeks ago and was actually starting to have panic attacks again, so 4 days ago i decided to move up to .5 mg am/pm. im still having anxiety and some minor attacks. i dont know if i need to give it more time or if i need a higher dose? but the main problem is.
But some will use Prozac at the tail end of your withdrawal to try and wean off the Paxil because Prozac stays in the body much longer than other of these meds and is therefore usually easier to wean off of. For a good description of this, The AntiDepressant Solution by Joseph Glanville is a good book. Wish I'd had it before my quack psychiatrist ruined my life. Because you know in advance what to look for, this won't happen to you. Simple as that.
I've read a few posts about anxiety and tremors. My tremors started when I started medication. I've tried sooo many different meds and get bad side effects. The meds really did a number on me. Now I have the shakes in my hands and left leg all the time. Sometimes it's hard to write. I'm getting an MRI in 2 days to check.
