I've been taking Paxil for years and it does help. I've been on 60 mgs and found it made me feel worse at high doses. I decreased my dosage to 30 mgs and feel much better.
Sometimes, more isn't always better.
I also take Klonpin for my anxiety, between the 2 meds and CBT I've been feeling better.
Paroxetine is generic for Paxil, so basically it's the same med. I hope you continue to feel better!
