Been on Paroxetine for just over a year. It's great against anxiety which is what it was prescribed for, but the moods not great. Feel very low, flat and generally glum. It it an effective anti depressant, or just good for anxiety.

I can only take 4 antidepressants, and this is one of the 4

Hey Orange. I am on Paroxetine (40mg) for severe anxiety and found that during the first few weeks that I took them they made a massive difference in my anxiety issues but have not totally eliminated them. I understand what you mean about the moods, I try not to let the glum feeling get on top of me and focus on things I enjoy and things I have to look forward to (however small they may be, this might help you too). I also take propranalol for severe panic attacks, do you have those too? HTH
