"i have been taking paxil for about 6 months.  before that i was taking zoloft for depression.  while i was no longer depressed feeling on zoloft, i realized that was getting stressed out about little things. i have always been &quot;high strung&quot; and full of energy.  since starting paxil i have calmed down and i am able to relax. i have just started taking niravam for high stress moments. i have gained weight and i am also tired feeling, but the peace of mind is worth it"
