hi folks just wondering if anyone is currently on seroxat/paxil for gad and depression. I have been on it for

a lot of years and was wondering what your opinions are of this med....I feel the system becomes immune

to it after 5 yrs and now its pretty much locked into my system. many attempts to slow taper from this stuff

in liquid form has failed as the side effects are horrendous and fyi not a return of residual symptoms.

your views are most welcome.....

 
I’ve been on it for 22 years! Every time I’ve ever tried to Change meds or get off of it my anxiety comes back really bad. I feel it does nothing for my depression anymore but does help my anxiety. 

 
From my personal experience, that was the worst one I tried.  It did help with the anxiety to a certain extent, but was otherwise ineffective, not to mention a terrifying episode of serotonin syndrome.  Very scary.  Lexapro wasn't bad, but I don't even remember why I got off of it.  I'm pretty sure I still had a bit of an attitude towards SSRI's and would work to get off of them.  I gave in again as my life was in a down period and I had less reservations (feeling a little beat down).  I was put on the infamous Prozac.  Didn't feel real great about the idea.  But as it turned out, it worked for me very well.  I never even noticed it affecting negatively, ever.  Even during the buildup and through dosage changes.  I just know how it feels when I am not on it.  It's pretty much transparent in my life, and has been for a long time.  I have never been diagnosed with depression though, although sometimes I thought that's what it may be. However, I am currently under a diagnosis of bi-polar disorder, after being diagnosed with mania only.  Strange process until I read about.  Are you calling me a maniac, doc?  I don't think so.  But as with many things.  Many terms have a stigma attached to them and people form opinions without even really knowing even what it is.  It seems like that is changing for the better as time goes on, especially with mental problems, which are VERY common.

Best of luck,

Also, it is a real pain to find one that works for you, kind of like the bi-polar meds.  Have patience and don't give up.  Don't give up on your doctor either, work through it with them, honestly.

regards,

chctwo

 
I just got prescribed Cymbalta and tried it, threw up for 3 days and now he wants me on Paxil.  I am just saying it  is working and sticking them in a drawer.  I know I'm depressed so I'm not in denial regarding that.  Wellbutrin was the best for about a month and then all I wanted to do was kill myself, same thing happened with another one.  I am in very bad grief and I think it's that, but it's also the PAWS syndrome thing that happens when you come off of opiates.  Truly, the only time I am happy is taking a small dose of Hi$$$dro

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
