Although my panic symptoms were reduced by 90% by eliminating caffeine/nicotine/drugs/alcohol from my diet and learning relaxation/deep breathing techniques, I started taking paxil. When it gave me more side effects than it was worth, I quit. I had horrible withdrawal symptoms. (My doctor still denies this can happen). Anyway, I decided to ween off of it, which I did, but now I am having serious boughts of depression. I have been off of it for months now.
Any similar experiences?
Everyone says, "ask your Dr.", but none of my Dr.s have known much apout panic/depression. They just want to keep giving me a pill and I have lost my insurance recently, so I can't afford meds anyway.
