I had a similar experience. Was on Paxil for a year - was doing terrific, then it just pooped out. The last med my doc prescribed was Zoloft, which I had to stop taking because of rash on face, chest and arms, and severe swelling of the face. Have also tried Prozac, Effexor and Lexapro, but nothing compares to Paxil (when it was working).
