I do not have persoanl experience with PaxilPaxil Paxil cr, so in light of that, I can't give you my persoanl experience with this particular problem. There are many folks here who are or have been on Paxil and I'm sure they will wade in with some advice. In my humble and non medical opinion, if your sex drive was normal before you began using Paxil, you were only on it for a year and have been off it for five months, I think it's time to see a urologist.
One of the "unlabeled" uses for Paxil is premature ejaculation and one of it's side effects is decreased libido. Make of that what you will...........but a visit to the urologist will no doubt put "things" to rights quickly.
Let us know if anything comes up!

Withdrawal can leave scars. In other words, Paxil is forever. I've never gotten back my sex drive, either. The withdrawal drove what was left of it away. But with time, I'm sure it'll come back, you have a kind of PTSD right now. Some therapy might help you deal with that. You might also want to get your testosterone levels checked -- they might still be down.
