Thank you Mjd.

Paxil was the first and only SSRI I've taken. 40 mg/day. I tried cutting down with the intention of stopping, but that didn't work well. It wasn't awful, I just didn't feel good. Hard to describe.

I do remember how happy I was not that long after I started taking Paxil. I would let a lot of little things bother me, everything stuck. Paxil fixed that. I reclaimed some control over a large part of my life.

And yes, good advice. I will be staying on Paxil.

(For those not familiar, Paxil has a reputation as being hard to quit, and my limited experience would confirm it. But as the structure of my brain, specifically serotonin re-uptake, hasn't changed, I see no reason to quit.)

Thanks again Mjd. I have not had a panic attack in the last 20 years. Panic attacks are nasty things. Hard to explain, but for those who have been through one, you know what I'm talking about.

All the best.

Joe
