Is this normal while on paxil?!

Is this normal while on paxil?

im a 22 yr old male. I started taking paxil(for anxiety) about 3 weeks ago and ever since, i have been having the most bizzare, psychotic/crazy, weird, artistic dreams imaginable. Its like im living a different life when my eyes shut because its SOOOOO different and every bit of it i remember as clear as day, every detail. I DO NOT like it because most of the dreams are really bad and terrifying. The good dreams are exceptional though(NOT talking about sexual oneslol) which brings me to my next point, i have virtually lost all my sex drive. I can get it up just fine, but cant really finish. I have masterbated once, and even though im in a relationship i have not had sex. the weird thing is that I could really care less if i do either, im just wondering if these are normal reactions? Thanks, sorry for all the detail(sexual ones) lol.

Andee, you nailed it. that how my dreams are, one extreme to the other. Last night actually I had a dream that I took acid and then went cliff jumping/parachuting while trippin at the same it. It was honestly the most amazing experience i have ever had in my entire 22 yrs alive. Yet the night before I dreamt that I murdered people. It was insane. Im really pretty sure id never do anything like that for real, but im not comfortable with having dreams like that either.

Yes, those are side effects of Paxil. I'm not on Paxil now, I'm on something else, but I know all about having those crazy dreams that are both terrifying and fun. I can fly in some of my dreams, it's really fun. In other dreams, someone is always chasing me down or shooting at me and I even get hit with the bullets...I don't like those.
