Hi all

I am 28 old and a lot overweight....  
I have the support of a very good doctor (neurology and psychiatry). I have been on paroxetine for almost 8 months and now i began to scale down.In a way i am trying to see if i can manage without the support of the drug. The drug helped me a lot with depression and to "grow adult" but not with the binge... I'm trying to do sport on regular basis but is not enough to get better...

Paxil

Hi i have been on dropaxin (paroxetine solution in italy) for 8 months. Now i began to scale down. The first weeks i had some side effects especially trouble sleeping. But if you doctor helps you to go gradually to the full dose it should be ok.
It took me 2 months to go on 20 mg paroxetine and will take 2 months to to get out of it. The only side effect that i had for the entire period was the bleeding... for every little scratch or wound i bleed a lot... I'love montaines so scratches and bruises... and this was a problem i had to carry always something to stop the bleeding and to clean the scratches.

Hi all

My doctor supports me and asked me to do regular exercise. I'm doing acquagym 4 times a week. It is realy relaxing and i should drop off 30 kg.. more or less. I am also very active i go hiking when i have the time and not feeling too depressed.
The doctor recommended me acquagym for my back problems, one slipped disk and another compressed...
 
I'm eating mostly salads and meat. The problem is when i go out of route and start binging....

Hi all

I have my doctor (neurology and psychiatry) that helped me a lot and i'm considering to go to see a counsellor too. But till october is virtually impossible for me to do this too. So i'm trying to do the best i can and to get all the help from my doc , my boyfriend and some intimate friends. The worst thing is the binge eating and 8 months of paroxetine didn't helped...
