Sigismund, I should not have said "probably have underlying depression", I should have said "may have underlying depression". I understand your point. My point was that it may not have been just the use of Paxil to cause the depression. If anxiety was always present, and especially since it was such a young age, depression could have come to the surface and manifested to some extent later in early adulthood regardless of Laney's experience with Paxil.
FB, thanks for asking about me. Will babblemail you. Hope you are doing o.k.
Laney, I would go with another SSRI first, JMHO. As far as a cross-taper, you would want to see a good psychiatrist about that. Or, someone here may have some good advice to give you. Some doctors just have you stop the SSRI your currently on and start you on the new SSRI the next day. Other doctors will take up to a month to cross-taper.
