Paxil Weight Gain

i took it for a year and gained 40 lbs. i went from 107 to almost 150 pounds!! i am 5 foot 4 inches short, so this was not a minor issue.

after a year i went off the Paxil with the supervision of my dr. because i seemed to be "cured" and i was devastated more than anything about the weight gain.

for the first time in my life, i was being called fat ass. and trust me, i felt like it, in fact, i had to buy an entirely new wardrobe because NONE of my old clothes fit me.

for almost two years i stayed off of the Paxil, and with diet and exercise managed to lose about 12 lbs. then, i started having panic episodes again! so, when no other medication seemed to manage it, i broke down at age 26 and went back on it.

gained back the 12 lbs plus some. i am now at 160 lbs, 27 years old, off Paxil (going on about 2 months now) and on Cymbalta, and still dieting and exercising with no change in weight.

i am tired, i am broke, and i am out of ideas on how to get back to my healthy weight. all that is left is hope, for i still have my old jeans in hopes that someday i will wear them again.

hope for others: the second time i stopped taking Paxil was cold turkey because one day it just became impossible to find in any drug store. only the generic was available and failed to help my symptoms. there was nothing i could do.

now i suffer only from insomnia and headaches now and then. the rest eventually disappeared after a couple of weeks. dont give up!

In addition to reading this story of Paxil weight gain, it's also important to understand the underlying causes that would lead someone to such a state in the first place.

I almost feel guilty because my life has become so enjoyable and so easy. Especially since I remember how miserable I used to be.
