I was on Paxil and then switched to Lex for depression. Paxil made into a complete zombie and left me feeling drugged, numb and more depressed. Lex killed my stomach, so I went to something else. I have a friend on Paxil for anxiety/depression, and he likes it quite a bit (except for the same sexual response problems you stated). He is also hooked on Xanax so that is a compounded problem. May I suggest Effexor. Another male friend is on it for bad anxiety and it works wonders for him in that area except, again, he complains of delayed and/or dulled sexual response at higher doses. Good luck in finding something that works for you.
