The withdrawals from Paxil/Paroxetine are very harsh. I don't know if the use of Paxil itself is dangerous. But I do know that if you take it, at some point you will either want to stop it or you will come to what they call "Paxil Poopout". That is when you've built up a tolerance to the drug and will start having withdrawals.
I personally had this happen to me and the withdrawals are very severe and include: Severe anxiety, depression, intense dreams/nightmares, suicidal thoughts, nausea, insomnia, dizziness, irritability, anger, sweating, feeling off-balance and clumsy, shaky, twitches and jerks, brain zaps and flashes of light, tinitus. difficulty focusing thoughts, akathisia, dysphoria and more.
There is a good ABC Primetime Live show about it. Search at YouTube

Will Paxil get you high?
No, it will actually do nothing at all. Paxil is an antidepressant. You will get the same effects from the medication as you would when you swallow it except snorting it can be 10x more dangerous. This can cause respiratory distress or even failure. Do NOT do this!
Trying to get off Paxil and trying to get pregnant. I tried getting off Paxil slowly once and was down to 7 mgs a day but I couldn't take the side effects. Is it really dangerous to be preg on Paxil?
Studies have shown that taking Paxil while pregnant can cause birth defects and premature birth. Paxil also passes into breast milk, so it should not be taken while breast feeding, either. Talk to your doctor and see if there is something you can take to help with the side effects of getting off Paxil that will be safe for the baby.

Is Paroxetine the same as Paxil?
Generic Paxil is definitely the same with its brand name since both drugs contain the same active ingredient. The only difference is the name given by manufacturers. The generic version of Paxil is known as Paroxetine. If you are on a tight budget then you can go for generic medications since they are basically much cheaper and offer the same outcomes with the brand names. Check: rx2040. com
