So i just started Paxil mostly for anxiety, (social anxiety) and depression. This is the first time I've ever been on medication, so I'm a little worried about the side affects. I've been on it for two days. Has anyone taken this medication before? If you have, please comment your experiences. I'm really interested in hearing if it worked for others. How long did it take to work, if it did? The side affect I'm worried about the most i guess is sexual dysfunction....didn't experience it yet but i hear it's a side affect. Did it affect your sex life?
