woundedhealer Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 has anyone had the experience of Paxil causing anxiety at first. It has been ten days and I have become much more anxious. Doc says hang in there this will go away. I want to believe him . But I have to take klonopin till then, if ever. How long does it take if it does subside? I wish I wold have read more about the half life of paxil compared to Prozac. Anyone switch form paxil to Prozac for any reason? His suggestion is ween off of bupropion keep the lamictal 100, think I will go to 200, and try paxil for awhile. Any thoughts. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laume Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 The only help I can be is the half life thing - Its 36 hours or so if I remember correctly (mught depend on if you are on CR or n ot), so that's why it is important to take it at the same time every day. Good luck with the anxiety thing - maybe someone else can answer that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryp Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I had this on Celexa (another SSRI). I can't answer how long it took to go away, because I ended up using another medication (Seroquel) to counteract it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
