I've been still having anxiety problems. Yesterday I noticed that I couldn't really wait in line @ Pathmark to cash in bottles/cans. Every time I mention my anxieties to my current psychiatrist, she keeps increasing the Clozaril but I don't want to continue to do that because the Clozaril is already doing the job it was meant to do in the first place. (getting rid of hallucinations). I hope when I see the new psychiatrist at the program, he/she may be able to find a different route to go because I'm tired of increasing the Clozaril and it not even touching the anxiety/panic one bit. If someone has any suggestions please let me know. I look forward to reading your comments. That's all I have to say for now and I thank you for reading my post.

I take paxil and my symptoms are gone, but this med takes a few weeks to kick in, but once you get threw it you feel so much better. Hope this helps.

Hate to be challenging but I've taken Pexeva (a form of Paxil) and it made me manic. I was on 20mg and I started yelling, screaming, hollering at everyone. Then I went to my doctor and started yelling, screaming, hollering at her too. Then after a bit of that I cried about what I had done. Then my pdoc suggested I go to the ER and possibly get admitted to the hospital because I was too out of control. I complied and she called police and they sent an ambulance and I was taken to the ER.

have you tired zoloft? I take that for my anxiety.

I was in the pdoc's office mentioning about it and talking back and forth with Mom in the office about it and she never said one word either way about it. So I don't know if I can or can't take it. All I remember is that I took it w/o problem years ago (before bipolar dx) @ 50mg. And I was on it for at least a year.
