over two years after paxil usage, i still have problems with my brain "freezing up" Or " locking up" as i call it. Dr's have said it sounds alot like neuronal misfiring. I have also lost most of my peripheral vision as a direct reaction to ssri's. These meds are dangerous for some people. your body and brain will give you clues if something doesn't seem right or feel right. Don't let the dr. put you off. Listen to your gut. I let a dr. keep me on meds and I ignored my own gut, and now i have permanennt neurological damage. Hindsight is always the best teacher . You know your body best. I hope your Dr. calls you back. Mine was terrified when he finally figured out what happened to me. A good friend of me and my fiance had taken wellbutrin for like 2 weeks and had a big seizure in front of his wife and kids. Sad, really. And a girlfriend of mine was a dancer at the time she was placed on celexa by her Dr. just because she was" turning 30 ". Yes, it's TRUE. Ridiculous as it seems. Well, anyway she was on stage and she said it felt like her brain was locking up. but it seemed like the eyes and brain weren't communicating properly when she turned her head on stage to look right or left. And another friend was on effexor and said he had to go off cause something did not feel quite right. I
t felt like he was losing his vision on med. As soon as he quit that feeling went away. These dr's have no clue what to do when their patients report bad effects from antidepressants because pharmaceutical reps do not inform them of these problems. it's very intersesting that thousands of people are reporting similar problems of Brain freezing, or or zaps. Just food for thought. Hope you do better off med . It might be worth the money to schedule an appointment with a good psychopharmacologist.
