Yes, but then you said this:
"The second time was paxil in 2002. I quit it because it has some
sexual side effects I didn't like -- I couldn't orgasm while on it.
Also my sleep was disturbed as I'd have vivid dreams where I would
talk aloud."
If you don't get them coming off or on, then you get them during.
But, then of course you sound like a long-term, committed, clinicians
friend, who takes whatever junk they dole out. I'll bet you don't know
why you do that.
