Sure. I had good experience with paxil. Although I take the very lowest dosage possible. My doc and I talked and she had eluded to the fact that paxil gets a bad rap because when people don't take it the way they're supposed to, their chems could get messed up. Heck, I'm still socially anxious. The paxil just helped to cut the edge off and I don't get depressed either. I highly advocate paxil, but bear in mind I am not a doctor.

I personally did not have any luck with Paxil. Quite the contrary, it made me more anxious. I have heard of many people that it has helped though. Everyone's chemistry is different. Some meds that work for some people don't work at all for others. That's why there are so many anti-depressants out there (in my opinion)

My Dr gave me Paxil for depression. It made me more depressed! I didn't even realize how depressed I had gotten until I stopped taking it. That is a dangerous drug! I think it should be taken off of the market. Alot of people have committed suicide on Paxil.

Paxil worked for a while, but it's definately a sex driver killer; now just taking Xanax, 1, 0.5 tab 3 x's per day and I'm feeling groovy...

social anixety is the least of my problems, and they are many. but i have used both and found paxil to be the best. it really did help. but be careful i gained 10lbs. a year on it.
