Experiences with Seroxat

My psychiatrist/therapist prescribed Seroxat 20mg for anxiety and depression. Been taking it for 2 years. Once tried to quit, got to 5mgs and started feeling the anxiety again. Came back to 20mgs/a day. It works perfectly for anxiety, not so good for depression. Honestly, I'm afraid of going off them, because I feel like the anxiety will come back. Also don't want to take them forever because o...

I ended up taking this for 2 years after my GP misdiagnosed undocumented side effects from another drug (tetrazepam) as depression. The tetrazepam was for neck pains and caused people to pass out, although this was not a documented side effect at the time. When this happened to me, my GP assumed depression and prescribed Seroxat. But on topic: Whatever you do, do NOT take Seroxat. This drug is...

Absolutely awful withdrawal problems. Terrible anxiety, thought distortions, suicidal thoughts. Just google how many people can't stop this awful stuff. Don't go near it, should never have been released. Never helped anything either.

I have used this for 16 years except during my two pregnancies. Was always effective, but for the last few months. Maybe it’s time to stop.

After 1 year I had put on 10 kg despite c...

I function brilliantly on 1 x 20 mg a day. Stopped taking it once. Just a few weeks afterwards I noticed a decline in my well-being which gradually got worse so I started back on it. The second time I tried to reduce the dose, I ended up with a zzzz shooting through my head. I'm just going to keep taking it now and I feel good. Shame that I'm overweight from it. Btw: paroxetine is all supposed ...

Since I was about 11 I've been taking medication for psychological problems, what the medicine was called I can't remember. It came from Switzerland in a bottle with a glass dropper and was really expensive. It was prescribed for me by a doctor at the teaching hospital in Leiden.
