I have been on paxil in the past and it caused me weight gain and most importantly, complete loss of libido. I was taken off and put on welbutrin (300mgs) and valium (30mgs) for anxiety. I am also dually diagnoised as a BPD and a drug addict. So taking valium though is very helpful for my anxiety, I have much trouble not over doing it. You'd think 10mgs three times a day would keep me pretty mellow, but I still find myself abusing them. So now my husband has taken over administering the meds to me. But when my GP changed me from valium to adivant and put me back on paxil with welbutrin, I can already tell that my libido is going down, and I am feeling lazy again. I didnt feel that on just welbutrin and valium. Has anybody been on a welbutrin paxil adivant mix before? How is it working for you?
I have to say that I really miss my valium, but as a drug addict I cant tell if that is because of the way it made me feel or if it helped me more than what I am on now.
Please, any feedback would be wonderful.
