just starting aropax tomorrow morning a bit scared only 1/2 a tablet to get me through my high school certificate (HSC to the aussies such as myself)
is it good for anxiety, like just taking the edge off not making me a zombie that cant feel, im just using it to help me cope and be calm enough to use the calming methods from my psychologist |

| All people have different reactions, some feel more stable and calm. Im one of those that could not take it, I was off it after 2 weeks. |

| Aropax Paroxetine can take 4 weeks to work before it helps with depression or anxiety. |

On my second day of Paroxetine, taking 10mg a day for a week and then up to 20mg a day.
It is supposed to help me with my social phobia, but now I only feel the side effects: nausea, dizziness, shakiness and agitation. |

| Side effects come almost immediately, the good effects don't. Sometimes side effects lessen over time. It's always hard to know if to stick by a med and hope bad stuff will go away and hope for good effects (approx 6 weeks). |
