Dear Lybrate user you had written that you are suffering from depression and anxiety since last 16 years and your have been consulting a psychiatrist. You are also taking medicines. But it seems that you have not gone for counseling which is the most important treatment along with medicines. Medicines do have side effects if taken in the long run, but counseling can get you rid of the medicines slowly. I would suggest you to take counseling for effective results. Feel free to contact me for all your counseling needs.

Dear lybrate-user, probably you have not taken any therapy or non medical method to manage your depression and anxiety all these years. Please learn and practice them for next 5-6 months along with these tablets. Then you will not need more dose of tablets and also slowly you may withdraw them. Since you have not given the dose of paroxetine, I can not comment on overdose. About side effects, you should only experience and inform your doctor. Please visit your doctor frequently. Do not take these tablets, especially lonazep, on your own without your doctor's prescription.

Dear Lybrate user, it must be difficult going through anxiety and depression. Along with medication I will suggest taking psychological counselling as well. Please consult a psychologist. There are therapies like cognitive behaviour therapy which is widely used for treating anxiety and depression. This is will help you in the long term to manage your anxiety and depression, your thoughts, coping, behaviours and emotions. If you need any more help you can contact me as well. Regards, aaradhana reddy counselling psychologist.
