> I gained a significant amount of weight recently too. I suffered from a 'situational' depression for lack of a better description. I had an infant and already had weight to lose. Once I finally weaned off - I got severe joint pain and mood swings and worst of all - so much more weight to lose. It seems no matter what I do, it won't come off. NO ONE ADVISED ME OF ANY OF THIS EVEN WHEN I ASKED. When I called my psych after making the connection he said to take 5 mg every 3rd day for 2 weeks. As soon as I took the first 5 mg, the joint pain disappeared. I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to take Paxil any more, expecially now. I still struggle with whether or not I needed it in the first place and was told there are no problems going off it, etc.!!!!!
NOW, I think I'm depressed!
HELP!
