When you say that raising your dose of Paxil gives you racing thoughts, is this a short term side effect or something that lasts after you've been on it for several weeks? How long did you take the higher dose?
Whenever I've started SSRI's in the past, they made me really anxious and agitated for like a week, then it went away. I had to use Xanax or Ativan to get on effective doses to tolerate the early side effects.
