Hello!
I very new here, but can relate to all here. I have been on antidepressants for 11 years. I was on Paxil for probably 9 years. At first it was fine, but as I stayed on it, it made my hands shake and basically quit working. I went to a psycaratrist (oh my, sp, 'shrink') and he got me off of it right away. Now, just bc some have problems with this drug, does not mean it is not a good drug. It works for some, just not others. My dr told me there are tons of drugs that battle depression. I went through many drugs until I found the one I'm on, effexor. It works great for me and I am grateful for it, otherwise I would be in a bad position. All I can say to those with depression, if it is like mine, clinical, you probably can do well with medication. If anything, try it. It might be just what the dr ordered. Trust me, my family are grateful that I'm on it.
