"after going through a hurtful breakup and loosing my job i fell into darkness, life lost intrerest. i decided to try antidepressants. doc prescribed paxil. i read the reviews, most say it helps after taking it for awhile. yesterday i took it at night. i couldn&#039;t sleep at all, after 3 hours i started to feel very weak, my head was heavy, i had an urge to stretch my whole body, lost appetite, but i did feel happier. because it affects your serotonin, i started to think about my relationship more. all day i couldn&#039;t get out of bed, felt very weak, couldn&#039;t even walk, sleepy but can&#039;t sleep. horrific feeling. although i hear it helps eventually, i don&#039;t think it&#039;s worth the side effects. bad experience."
