I really resisted meds for a long time myself.  My image was of my mother, who seemed out of it all the time.  She was on thorazine.  Problem was, I was starting to remind myself of her without being on meds!  That was scarier. I was really afraid of being like my mother. Finally, I made the decision to try Paxil.  Doug is right, there is no feeling of being "high" and I don’t feel "out of it."  I sometimes have nausea, and low libido as side effects.  Positive effects – I’m feeling depressed much less often than I was.  I haven’t cried since starting on it.  It’s kind of subtle.  I was much more talkative today with my sister-in-law and other family members.  The words really came out easier. I’m on my 4th week of Paxil. I don’t blame people for not wanting to take meds.  It is a decision that should not be made lightly.  But how many of us do other things with less consideration – such as smoking cigarettes, pot, or drinking alcohol, or doing "illegal" drugs? Look at it this way – Paxil has fewer side effects than antibiotics. (Obviously this is not directed at Doug, but at those who think we take AD to get "high."  If I wanted to get high, I’d smoke some good buds!) -ajiko

My biggest fear is the fact that I might need to be dependant on Paxil or whatnot to function. It might improve my SP considerably, but I don’t want to have a pack of it everywhere I go. Nor do I want others to know of my predicament, I doubt everyone already knows what Paxil is used for but I’m not about to flash it everywhere I go for people to research and find out. It’s not quite mental gymnastics, but it’s almost workable. The Monytaur

You only take it once a day, usually before bed.  I take 1 small 20 mg pill. When I tried SJW I was taking 4 capsules.  If you’re worrying about what others might think, you can put it in a plain container. If you are on your own, with only mild SP, I think you should stick with no drugs – unless your condition becomes unbearable.  I have to be responsible for a 9 – year – old with Asperger’s Sydrome (he’s v-e-r-y demanding), and I felt I needed to get more control over depression that was interferring with my parenting responsibilities. If I was on my own, I would focus on spiritual and philisophical studies as my first choice for dealing with depression / SP.  (Or maybe I’d go back to smoking pot???  That makes the SP worse, but I don’t care so much about it!) -ajiko

At least it’s not something as obvious as getting injections for diabeties, I definately don’t want others to know of my situation. I am going to continue my without meds for the timebeing, although I know that it’s inevitable that I’ll relapse into the anti-social, despressive state over and over. I’m just hoping that it can be manageable. How about that for optimism? The Monytaur

Oxy is also a drug that, when people run out, they look for a substitute, and some wind up on heroin (I’ve known two people, one who started on Percaset(?) and the other on Oxycontin). <photon…@my-deja.com> wrote in message

Response:

I have to differ, Cliff.  What the AD’s do is limit the time you spend down.  Things go into the crapper peiodically in everybody’s life.  So you spend a day or two depressed, then come out of it and get going again.  When I wasn’t taking AD’s, that two days turned into six months of depression, anger, rage, irritabilty and so on. And during that time I would do (or not do) things that would continue to fuck up life, prolonging the cycle.  The drugs make me deal with things "almost" like a "normal" person. <cliff…@my-deja.com> wrote in message

Zoloft helped but not enough, I increased the dosage and started having problems urinating.

It is an opiate, and a very powerful one.  There was a study released a couple of weeks about this class of drugs showing that they are non-addictive for people with serious pain (I took some for my back spasms recently), but it IS addictive is you use it for recreation.

making you less depressed is the same as making you more high. depression is an inherent part of life. it is inescapeable. a starving person in India and a rich moviestar both have the same level of happiness/depression. ssri’s only change when you’ll be depressed. by taking ssri’s, you allow psych to control when you are happy. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> >In article <750.148T1445T9955135swa…@swalde.u-net.com>, > >  "Sylvain Van der Walde" <swa…@swalde.u-net.com> wrote: > >> clj <Jakesc…@yahoo.com> wrote on 23-Apr-00 01:06:05: > >> Re: Paxil + Oxycontin ? could it be trouble ? > >> << snipped >> > >> > Well, I went to my garden variety doc and questioned him on the > >pro’s and > >> > con’s of Paxil vs the Zoloft I had been taking.

Quite true which is why booze or other recreational drugs are popular. However, none of the ssri anti depressants make you at all high.  I’ve never experienced any  pleasurable sensations with any ssri. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->In article <750.148T1445T9955135swa…@swalde.u-net.com>, >  "Sylvain Van der Walde" <swa…@swalde.u-net.com> wrote: >> clj <Jakesc…@yahoo.com> wrote on 23-Apr-00 01:06:05: >> Re: Paxil + Oxycontin ? could it be trouble ? >> << snipped >> >> > Well, I went to my garden variety doc and questioned him on the >pro’s and >> > con’s of Paxil vs the Zoloft I had been taking.

Perhaps you should go easy on the Oxycontin. When one has been on opiates for a while then depression does set in about 24-hours without, even if one is not physically addicted. Well Thats the situation for me anyway, if you been eating oxy’s daily or even every 2 or 3 days for a while then you got a problem. How many are you taking ? As long as you arnt taking enough to be droopy in a semi sleepy high then you maybe ok as far as interactions concerned. You had better watch yourself with those oxy’s, the withdrawl wont fuck you up long term but just be prepared to go through a bad time if you run out of the drug. I’m on a weaker version of oxy but its still adictive all the same. It brightens my mood but I have a feeling it is reducing the effectiveness of the paxil. From what I understand these synthetic opiates are metabolised by the same enzymes that paxil uses. Basicaly if you are taking oxy or codeine or whatever, then it may well reduce the amount of the active metabolite produced from the paxil & oxy. As a result reducing the effectiveness of both paxil and oxy. I try to avoid taking any in the morning when I take paxil, try and wait some few hours after taking your paxil.

No, dont ask your doc he’l stop prescribing the oxy’s if thats where you getting it from. And do not rely on doctors to much either, doctors dont know jack all but the very minimal basics. Especially when anti- depressants are concerned. Do your own research and find out for yourself, you’l soon learn the true reality concerning anti-depressants and drug abuse etc. Besides, lots of GP’s/doctors only read the hype that they get from the pharmacautical companies. In my experience many doctors have no idea of the interactions between anti-depressants and pain killers. Also there knowledge and ignorance on mental illneses are disturbing, one wonders if they are ill themselves. If you doc seems shit go to a specialist or do your own research.

Well, I went to my garden variety doc and questioned him on the pro’s and con’s of Paxil vs the Zoloft I had been taking. He was not impressed with the hoopla regarding Paxil and suspicious of the makers advertising campaign he believes all the SSRI’s could work well against SP. I’m currently washing out with Zoloft and about to try Paxil. Jake
