My experience was not well. I took it for approx 3 months (had anxiety issues with a nasty divorce)...

I was told by family members and friends that I became short with them and like a rag doll attitude. At the time I figured it was them and not me but once I got it out of my system...I then realized that Paxil took away my personality and anything would set me off with a terrible temper.

Now I'm back to being me and the divorce behind me now for 14 years. Haven't had anxiety since.

It may work for you...it just was not for me.

Do you feel comfortable telling your family or close friends about this medication and ask them that if you start to behave strangely to tell you (must not get mad at them...) & give Paxil a try.
