I reckon your doctor put you on Paxil? I mean of course, why else would you be taking an antidepressant. There are few solutions to SSRI related Insomnia. Insomnia caused due to antidepressants or for the matter any other medicine subsides with time. But if you are feeling impatient then you should talk to your doctor. He would either prescribe a hypnotic or an antipsychotic. Prescribing an antipsychotic as a sleeping aid makes it an off label use so I am not sure what the status on off label use of drugs is in your country.
Also, Xanax is for anxiety. I have never heard of Xanax being prescribed as a sleeping aid mainly because of its abuse potential, the tolerance a person develops to it and the dependence that it causes.. so .. why exactly are you taking that?
I yawned with Celexa for months, then realized one day that it had stopped and I had missed it.
