Paxil

View More Posts Ignore
I was prescribed Paxil for a few years before incidents began occuring. In the year 2003, I began experiencing anger problems. I would freak out over the most pointless things. It got to a point where I would run away from home.

In fall of that year, the final, worst incident happened. I pulled a knife on my own mother...my own mother, over the fact I didn't have my computer games where I wanted them. I threatened her. To this day, I regret that idiotic decision.

I was taken by police to the hospital. After a week of rehabilitation, it was discovered that Paxil was the cause of my rage.

I know that Paxil has hurt many lives. Please share your stories.

" Okay paxil is supposed to be an anti depressant yet I'm on it now and more depressed than I've ever been in my life. I mean, I never even thought about cutting myself until a few weeks ago and I did it. Never been suicidal, now I am. I think paxil is a bog part of what's going on with me. I wanna get off of it but I can't because my doctor wants me on it. "

" You don't have to take the medicine: tell youre doctor that you're having these problems.

My doctor kept upping my dosage, and my problems grew worse. Don't let it happen to you, too. "
