I have been an anxious person my whole life and im really tired of it.  I want to know what it’s like to not live in fear and anxiety.  Lately I have been struggling with some really bad insomnia and health anxiety.  My doctor prescribed Paxil 10mg and told me to start on 5mg because I am pretty sensitive to meds.

I so terrified of side effects, specifically permanent sexual side effects and worsening insomnia.  I’m also terrified of how hard it will be to come off of them.  

After reading all about Paxil, I thought about lying to my doctor and saying it didn’t work, Then requesting something like Trazadone for insomnia.  

 I really could use some words of encouragement and positive experiences with Paxil
