Just a general update: finally starting to feel a bit better after what, a week maybe, of pretty strong side effects from the Paxil. A sour stomach, drowsiness, trouble sleeping (yeah, great combination there), blurred vision in the mornings, feeling like I've been drugged, a lump in my throat that I can't swallow down, tightness in my throat, hard time with concentration, dizziness upon severe movement or standing, and general weakness, among other smaller things.

So glad to not have the sour stomach anymore, and not feeling as tired or drugged up (though I did myself the favor of resting in bed until I felt decent, and that took until 2pm! I'm glad that I did it, though). I work on art as I can, maybe up to 2 hours a day, so progress is slow, but is still progress! Here's hoping that this is the turning point in the acclimation process!
