Reply #37: I didn't have much luck with them

[Nikia]

There was Paxil which made me emotionless, have no interest in sex or food, and violent in my sleep. Zoloft made me have a high level of anxiety (but not quite to panic stage) all day, every day. My doctor wanted to try me yet on another SSRI and I refused. My problem was panic attacks. I got a beta blocker (also helped my borderline hypertension), group therapy, and Xanax to take if I had a panic attack. Then I felt better. A year later, my chronic sinus infections and mysterious stomach problems were cured with antobiotics and I felt even better. I would not say I am cured. I have considered getting back into therapy because I have been both down and anxious over several things in my life lately. I am functional and not afraid to go anywhere anymore. I am also relaxed some times.
