anxiety/depressed/pax/lex

Posted by winterbluez on April 2, 2008, at 11:54:03

i have been on paxil(5mg.) i know low dose~ but i started on 20 and felt better and went to 10 then a year or so later went to 5 and stayed there for years. I have gad/soc. anx./ s.a.d/ and when a shocking life event arises i tend to fall into a deep depression. i just had one of those mid march and couldn't sleep for 2 nights straight!
went to gp and he said stop the paxil and switched me to lexapro 10 mg., i went a week on that and couldn't sleep was irritated edgy and
have felt like my feelings/emotion are wrapped up in a coccoon inside me. i'm a very emotional feeling kinda person so this really bothers me.
plus the sexual SE of total numbness in my groin
{no ejaculation remotely possible} is totally unacceptable and doubles the feelimg of depression alone! i was on .5 mg. of xanax 2x a day for years also. i since dropped my lexapro down to 5 mg/day and asked to be switched to klonopin. i an sleeping fine now but still feel all revved up on lexapro, and still don't feel my normal feelings/emotions. my eyes have been twitching and i feel very unmotivated,,

what should i do? get off the lex and go
