WHAT paxil withdrawal board??
I am just starting the tapering and it's really HARD. I was daydreaming about suing the mfgr. This is like quitting smoking, maybe worse.
Thanks--Patti
> > I have heard so much about paxil causing weight gain. I was on zoloft for a short while and lost weight but gained some weight back on effexor xr I was wondering if anybody has had any good experiences with paxil and weight loss, has anybody actually lost weight while taking paxil. Heres hoping so!

A lot of people like myself are having one heck of a time getting off of it. I must also tell you that there are people who have luck with it also. I just haven't heard of many especially where weight is concerned. Good luck.
