Paxil is an antidepressant sometimes used to help those with anxiety. HealthCentral expert Marcia Purse recently wrote a post explaining about this medication and I thought it may be useful to some of our members on the AnxietyConnection site:
Medications for Bipolar - Paxil (Paroxetine)

Hey Eileen
I am glad to have any links to information on the various medications used to treat anxiety and other disorders. Medication questions are probably the number one topic on our mental health sites.
Wanted to point out to our members that we have an extensive list of Member Medication Reviews located on our depression site. Sometimes it helps to know how others have fared on a particular drug and what the experience may be like. Note that each individual will react differently to any particular medication. What works for one person may not work for another. And likewise, some people experience side effects to a medication that others will not.
We also have some member comments on using Paxil. If anyone is currently using Paxil or has taken it in the past I would urge you to talk about your experience here on our anxiety site, depression site or our bipolar site. It helps others when you share your story.
Thanks for the link Eileen!
Thanks so much. I agree, with all the "experts" here on HealthCentral, we cover so much great information. I think we can all learn from all of it and hope to share more information from the other sites as I see it is relevant to our members here on AnxietyConnection.com.
