I used Paxil when it first came out for anxiety I "thought" I was going through. At first it seemed to help with that fluttering nrevous feeling in my gut but after a while I simply couldn't feel. What I mean by that is I couldn't feel happiness, sadness, joy, etc... It was as if I had a minor labotomy. I got off of it. Titrade down, never stop at once or anxiety will be over whelming. After a couple of weeks I could "feel" again. I stopped using it about 3 years ago and have been just fine. Everyone experiences anxiety of some sort, it's just in how they go about working with it. Some people may truly need it but I feel that it's over prescribed just like prozac in this day and age as a quick fix. Just my humble opinion from experience.
