paxil experiences

I just started taking paxil today. I am only taking 10 mg. My doc gave me 20 mg pills but said that I can take half to start off with to see how my body responds. I was prescribed it for anxiety and panic attacks. Can anyone please tell me how long it will take for me to feel better? I have pretty much constant anxiety. For the past fews days it has been so bad that I feel like I cannot catch my breath all day. I went to ER and everything is fine. I guess it's just my anxiety and panic attacks. Also is diarrhea normal when you first take it? I took my first dose today and got diarrhea about 45 mins after taking it. I really would just like to know your experiences as far as did it work and if so how long did it take? Thank you for your time!

I just posted the same question lol!!  My doc prescribed Paxil 10mg and said to take it at night cause it makes you sleepy.

Not sure if I should start taking it, afraid of weight gain and withdrawal syndrome. Don't know......

That's weird my doctor said to take it in the moorning because it can cause insomnia. I went ahead and took the 10 mg at around 5 pm. My anxiety has been so bad lately. It kind of made me a little more anxious. But my doc said that might happen at first. I just hope it helps.
