It wasn't just that I wasn't anxious anymore- I didn't care about much of anything. However, everyone is different. You might want to try different dosages or different drugs before you stop...

As far as staying or going, I guess I need to see what's in store for me.<br/><br/>And drugs, yeah, I hate taking them. Went off the birth control recently, which probably explains my sudden interest in having a life, because for so long I was content not to have one. At my age, I see no need to go back on it.<br/><br/>I hate having to drive everywhere. Driving is only good for those long head clearing drives, because I can sing at the top of my lungs.

I was petrified that if i went home, i'd be a failure, and i thought i was for a long time. my dad kept telling me i wasn't and every time he did, i'd start crying. <br/><br/>I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but if your wanting to go home is really that intense, all I can say is, I did it, and it was the best decision i ever made. Ever.<br/><br/>If you do decide to stay however, I think you are incredibly brave and I think something will work out for you.<br/><br/>As for Paxil, one of my best friends is on it, and she wasn't a huge fan so she went off but then went back on it again. unfortunately i don't know the whole story, but I totally agree...no drugs if you can live happily. I have to be on birth control for a reproductive area issue, and I wish i didn't have to be on anything. before b/c I didn't ever get pms. now I turn into a somewhat raging lunatic. It sucks b/c I know it's not me.<br/><br/>Anyway, I've been in your shoes re: home vs/ where you are now. Whatever you decide to do in the long run, I think you'll follow your heart and make the best choice for you.<br/><br/>And, I hate that you can get in your car and go for a drive. I haven't been in a car in a month.<br/><br/>Wah. ;) well, I’ve been in the exact same situation you’re in now.

Anyway, I’ve been in your shoes re: home vs/ where you are now. Whatever you decide to do in the long run, I think you’ll follow your heart and make the best choice for you.

And, I hate that you can get in your car and go for a drive. I haven’t been in a car in a month.

Wah. ;)
