I was on Paxil for 10 months, and while it did wonders for my depression and anxiety (the first 8 months, anyway), I gained around 40 lbs. It stopped working at around 8 months. I'm now on Lexapro, which has a wonderful s/e on me: decreased appetite!! All my other s/e's went away within 4 days of starting Lexapro except that one. I have now been on Lexapro for 3 weeks and 4 days. Still no appetite =)
Good luck with Paxil, or whatever drug you decide to try!Myst
