Now when I took Paxil I wasn't exaxtly where I wanted to be, or at least where I thought I wanted to be but I didn't realize until I was off of it that I was much better on it than I was off. It wasn't perfect, I needed dosage adjustment, maybe something to accompany it, but being on it wasn't my issue it, it was taking myself off. I had no insurance at the time, I didn't have money at the time to pay for more and it was groceries or medicine, so I said, I'll be fine, I don't think it's working anyway. Big mistake. I was only going to a quick "express doctor", one of those, sore throat, here ya go! Headahce, here ya go! Not one that got to the root of my problem. I wish I would have had better access at the time, I would be in better shape now. Good luck though, hope all goes well.
