First day on #paroxetine today. It may be psychosomatic since it normally takes a while before you feel the effects, but something feels... different... Fingers crossed it can help me out of the bad spiral I've been stuck in the last few years... #anxiety #depression #loneliness #mentalHealth

My current meds:

- #Duloxetine (an SNRI #antidepressant, often sold as #Cymbalta)
- #Clonazepam (a #benzodiazepine primarily for #anxiety/#PanicAttacks)
- #Paroxetine (an SSRI antidepressant, known as ‘#Paxil’)
- #Lithium carbonate (a mood stabilizer, used for #BiPolar disorder, but in my case to reduce #SuicidalIdeation - intrusive suicidal impulses)

We aim to reduce the Clonazepam and Paroxetine to zero this year (I’ve ended up on these four after a long time of trying different meds).
