"i used to be on the generic for paxil and it was horrible for me. did not work one bit and took away all desire for sex with my significant other. i was &quot;flat emotioned&quot;. i stopped taking the generic for paxil and eventually ended up on celexa a few months later(20mg). it actually took away all my depression, but not quite all of my anxiety, and brought my sexual desire back 100 %. i wasn&#039;t even on it long enough to get the full benefit from it, so i bet it would have eventually helped my anxiety better too. for some dumb reason, i stopped taking it. now i am severely depressed and anxious again and am ready too seek help and beg for celexa back."
