has anyone been on the antidepression of paxil for a long time and years later got dionoised with ms and then started taking ms medicine and your symptoms got worse once you started taking the ms medicine
maybe im looking for a miracle for this depression thing, maybe i'll talk to the doc on next appt to see what could be done, sucks enough having m/s, sucks enough not having family or anyone just to ask how i am. tried talking to the pastor even he hasn't returned my calls. thank yo all for your responses and have a good day!
I have been on paxil for 20 years since I started Avonex. Think then it went hand n hand. Don't think I ever really needed it. Working on tapering off as it's a nightmare of a drug. A few side effects but so far so good. I have more energy then I have had in years. Hope it keeps up. But you have to taper off very slowly. Anyone else taper off paxil?

Massage therapy. And cymbalta daily.

Anxiety and panic attacks aren't new but my lack of control or handling them has changed since MS. Since I suffer from cognitive and memory problems I can't remember exactly what I did before. It's so embarrassing that I just want to stay home and text people forever but that's not living. I'm sick of just existing.
I experience a lot of anxiety especially if I have to go somewhere. I worry ,needlessly I know, about a lot of things. I use to be a very social person but I find now that I can't handle large… read more
I was just reading article about Fibromyalgia treatments and it stated patients have been given antidepressants that help with pain etc. Seeing sometimes MS has such similar symptoms as fibro I was wondering if anyone here takes antidepressants for MS and if it helps ?
