> I'm currently on Paxil (or the Little Pink Pills as I call them) and prior that it was something else (the Little Blue Pills). I see these ads for Paxil on TV and it makes me mad cause they're marketing it as medication for Social Anxiety Disorder, and being a sufferer of the aforementioned malady, it pisses me off that it does nothing for the disorder that I haven't managed to do on my own. I was nervous about it at first. However, the medicine is helpful because it provides a hand out of the hole I've managed to dig myself into. Anti-depressants are nothing to be ashamed of, no more than you should be ashamed of taking pain killers or antacids.

You're on Paxil, too? I'm taking it for what we think might be social phobia. The Forum and Chat do a good job of hiding it, eh?
