I honestly didn't think Paxil was helping because it seemed to counteract with caffeine ( which I like) and I kinda figured I'd go back on Prozac I mean I didn't like it because of the side effects being tired and dry mouth but again I figured what the heck I'll go back on it I'll deal with it I need my caffeine. My Therapist said nope you need to stay on it and actually caffeine is bad for you ( this isn't the first time I heard this) My last therapist told me caffeine is terrible I need you quit it!! Do all therapists hate caffeine? The funny part is my therapist was had a McDonald's mccafe coffee on the desk. Honestly??

I've never had a medical professional say anything to me about caffeine, but I drink coffee in moderation.

I must have weird therapists:/ When I was teenager I would tell my therapist how I loved Mountain Dew and he told me how terrible it was and shouldn't drink it but naturally I drank it anyways. Today I happen to bring up the medication situation and my therapist said no honestly you shouldn't drink that anyways because of your anxiety which I get to a degree but I've been drinking Mountain Dew Coke ever since I was a teenager but Paxil somehow made me have interactions with caffeine but I guess I'll just have to deal with it.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
