2nd Paxil Update - Feeling Bad
September 24, 2026··
Feeling bad. Big anxiety. Thinking that being on 20mg paroxatin (paxil) for 30 years it no longer had any effect. Now the only way is suffering tapering for years or trying to go above 20mg to get any positive effect. Its confusing. I would like to finish ssri 100%. If i still had anxiety i could try psychadellic therapy or another SNRI or ... i am not even certain my symptoms are taper related. One doctor said just stop! I am on 5mg for 4 months, will just hold this and hope thing settle....
