"this is my second time on paroxetine after suffering with severe panic attacks and depression, i was a complete wreck but had to do something quickly! i tried all the self help programmes as well but nothing worked! the doctor put me on another medicine first (sertraline). i was in a state after 3 weeks and severe insomnia, weight loss due to no appetite! so i decided to go back to paroxetine. i started on 5mg and slowly went up to 20mg over about 5 weeks, i&#039;m now feeling so much better, this medicine has helped me get back to my old self and i&#039;m thankful for that! i&#039;m in the uk so don&#039;t pay insurance."
