Re: Anyone take Paxil

    I started taking Paxil for PPD when DD was about 3-4 mths old.  She's 15 mths now and I still take it.

    I like it.  It makes me a bit tired, so I take it in the evenings.... unless I can feel early on that its going to be a 'bad day'.  It helps when I start to feel really stressed/anxious/overwhelmed... kinda just helps me chill and cope better.  The only side effect that I've noticed is that while its strong in my system, I'm completely incapable of  having an O, which sucks, but I'm just grateful I didn't lose my sex-drive all together since that can be common too.

    I also do talk therapy once a week for anxiety now.
