Hey I am on Paxil and I too have read all the horror stories. I also did a ton of research on drugs. There are many people that have issues due to a bad reaction or to the strong side effects at first or if they stop taking them all of a sudden. I am doing great on my drugs now that I have gotten over the side effects. Many many people experience success on drugs, but most of them go out and enjoy their lives instead of posting online about it. Keep on with the meds and talk to your doctor if you have any side effects and you will be ok. And, Definately if you feel suicidal get help right away. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!
