Haven't been on this forum for a long time... Anyway, I've been on Paxil for almost 7 years now. It stopped my panic attacks. Unfortunately, it made me gain about 35 lbs of fat. By going on a VERY strict diet, I lost most of this weight. But to keep it off, I have to eat like a bird. Is there a drug outside of the SSRI family that works as well as Paxil WITHOUT the weight gain? All responses appreciated.
