Thanks to everyone for their comments in this thread.
> Have you ever thought of trying Seroquel
> or Zyprexa for your romantic crush?I don't know what those are. I have never considered the idea of taking something for my crush because I did not think of crushes as something that could be medicated - until my experience with the Serzone, which is making me think this is no ordinary crush, but rather a mental health problem. My main concern is social anxiety, and to a lesser extent, depression. I am hoping the Paxil will help me with all these problems.
> Unrequited love is painful; what makes you
> think the situation is hopeless??Trust me, it is hopeless. This crush is unwanted. I am already in a successful relationship, and so is she, among other reasons. Looking at it objectively she is also not my type and I would be miserable with her in the long run. I am intellectual, she is materialistic, etc. For the first time I have been attracted to someone totally inappropriate. There is a total disconnect between what I feel for her and what I think of her. It is very weird. I have never understood those women who seem attracted to men who are bad for them, but I understand that better now! It sucks to be attracted to someone who you know would be bad for you.
Tapering off the Serzone is taking forever but I am down to my last week on the stuff, can't wait to try the Paxil.
