I started having anxiety attacks in 2005 and my doctor put me on paxil. well paxil was the drug from hell not only did i gain 40 pounds, i lost my sex drive, lost interest in my friends and family and basically couldnt feel any emotions. In 2007 i told the doctor that this drug wasnt working for me so he put me on prozac. The withdrawls symptoms from the paxil were horrible and it took forever for the prozac to kick it. the prozac though i feel didnt really do a lot for me, i still continued to have anxiety attacks, trouble sleeping etc. It was like the prozac took the edge off. I have stopped taking prozac again which my doctor is aware of. the first week i felt fantastic and postive over the past weekend i feel joint stiffness, i cant sleep, im having some anxiety i feel like i cant breathe is this withdrawl from the prozac? I dontwant to be on antidepressants anymore, i want therapy. I just want to know if im going through prozac withdrawls and has anyone else felt like this??
