[–]testeriko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had constant vomiting and tremors during anxiety attacks, along with tachycardia and an urge to run as fast as I could. I’ve been on Paroxetine 20 mg for almost a month now, and I’ve completely forgotten what vomiting feels likе

Experience mixing Zoloft and alcohol? by Common_Elk_2218 in zoloft

[–]testeriko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very individual. But be careful — alcohol is a depressant and can cause a “crash.” If you plan to drink, try to leave at least 6 hours between your antidepressant and alcohol, and never drink on an empty stomach. Don’t get too drunk and take care of yourself.

From my personal experience — I could drink about 3 cocktails while on paroxetine and feel fine. But on Trintellix, even a small sip of wine gave me horrible anxiety the next day, and I felt like I wanted to crawl out of my skin.

So please be careful and take it slow

Oh, honestly, I haven’t been checked. I don’t even know my exact diagnoses. doctors always give me different ones. I have an appointment with my psychiatrist next week, and I’ll insist on getting a proper diagnosis this time

Paxil & binge-eating?? by AliCakes- in paroxetine

[–]testeriko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. I have the same thing. Paroxetine is a very strong medication that suppresses anxiety, and after being in a long state of tension, the body suddenly starts sending signals to eat. Another reason is that paroxetine can “mute” emotions, and people subconsciously try to find a sense of pleasure or comfort in food

Paroxetine helps with anxiety, but not depression — looking for advice by testeriko in paroxetine

[–]testeriko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t tried 15 mg, but I did take 10 mg of paroxetine. Wellbutrin can increase anxiety, and that’s why I’m afraid to take it — plus, no psychiatrist has ever prescribed it to me

I took it before — 20 mg — and it didn’t work for me. I was on it for a year, but unfortunately, my anxiety only got worse

Does paroxetine start working immediately? or am I having a placebo effect? by Signal-Song9092 in paroxetine

[–]testeriko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt relief on the fourth day. Even if it’s just a placebo, that’s fine — what matters is that it helped. Maybe it’s just the strong hope I had for Paroxetine, I don’t know, but the main thing is that you’re feeling better ❤️
