Benefits
Did Paxil make me less depressed? Yes. However, I still couldn’t interact with people and felt lethargic all the time. I felt like a zombie. On some occasions I just couldn’t even get out of bed.
Side Effects
It was weird, I was tired all the time but I still had trouble sleeping. Because I was tired, I was always moody. In addition, once I stopped taking the Paxil drug, I suffered from some horrible withdrawal symptoms. I wish I never took it.
