In reply to Off of Paxil for 6 days...LEXAPRO ANYONE?, posted by peterjarvis on October 10, 2003, at 19:26:47
I was on paxil for some time. about a year. played hell with me. weight gain, no sex, distracted as well as feeling angry and depatched for my family and friends. Became more depressed. Dr. switched me to lexapro. at 20 mg what this helped with was the withdrawal from paxil,then took the max of 50 I think it made it a little less severe. Anyway I am now on Wellbrutrin 100sr because the lexapro didnt do the trick either. they usually take about 4weeks or so. Hope you have good luck with the lexapro.. it did bring back a sex drive, so that was one benefit and I did lose alot of weight. so good luck. jeanne
