I am so very sorry for you and our son. Paxil and Prozac are similar and belong to the same class of meds, but there must be a significant difference in the brain chemistry. I don't suffer from anxiety, and my doctor was surprised that paxil helped whereas prozac didn't. But our brains can process things differently.

Is your son one of the 1%? Most likely...

More like one of the 4 to 10 percent according to recent Non Eli Lilly paid for studies.

And if that's the case, I can shrug my shoulders and say we took a gamble and lost. There is a risk to the meds, but there are risks to not taking them too.

But if they have suppressed evidence that that 1% is really something like 10%? I'll be so livid, I won't know what to do with myself. I'm just watching the info coming out and will wait and see.
