Did anyone else hit their personal worst after taking Paxil or Lexapro? God I can not believe what the hell happened to my body and mind from that stupid pink pill... I got so fat..I am a "fat girl" now who really has social phobia. They do make you gain weight, I don't care what the doctor says. I used to have a great figure, now I hate looking in the mirror or shopping. And the worst part is you don't care. You don't care about sex. job. careers. mind. body or anything. and be prepared for a serious nightmare if you drink alcohol on Paxil. Two DUI's later and some serious bad scenes I am off those meds. Yes, the withdrawal is horrid. I feel like I have motion-sickness all the time and start to cry for a few seconds serveral times a day. "My brain feels like it is spinning rapidly in my skull". But, the clearer I become and lift out of this SSRI fog the more angry I am at myself for thinking the answer to my small personal hang-up was an evil pill.
