I do not want to start a heated debate on here about antidepressants, i would just like some opinions on the subject. A lot of members on here suffer from anxiety and OCD as well as emet, it is a proven fact that SSRI's help with these problems, I am a longterm user of an SSRI (Paxil) and it has helped me to live a fairly normal life without panic attacks and my OCD is now managable. Why do so many people not agree with even trying meds for anxiety?
