I'm seeing a psychiatrist right now. He said that the treatment for my generalized anxiety is 1 year. I take Paroxetine (Xet 20 mg) once daily and Rivotril (Clonazepam) 1/8 at night. He decrease the dose of my rivotril, because I take it 1/4 at night to 1/8, he said that in my next appointment, he will not prescribed rivotril anymore. My concerned is that I know it will take quiet sometime to recover, but I have worries everyday, like I don't want to hear loud noises and bang on the door (Im in my auntie's house right now and they don't know my issues, especially my grandma, I don't want her to worry) I feel like, is it for me? Are they angry? But I can brush it off in my head. Just a little beat of breathing or listening to music. But my worries so far is that if I will take the board exam this March 2019? I feel like my mind is not yet ready, but I don't want to disappoint my grandma & parents, they know that I will take the pharmacy board examination this March but as of the moment, I don't want too. Right now, I don't read books and didn't start to review :(I need advice. Thank you.

Dear lybrate-user,
don't diagnose the disease from the tablets. The same tablet can be given for many disorders at different dose. It will work for depression in 2-3 weeks, if the dose is adequate. If you want to help her, please discuss with her psychiatrist. She needs simultaneous treatment for her hypothyroidism and diabetes also.

Hello, simple answer is with controlled release (cr) preparation, paroxetine shall remain in blood stream for longer time & will have less chance of adverse side effects like dry mouth, sleepiness etc. So, depending upon a patients profile psychiatrist shall choose whether paroxetine plain or paroxetine-cr is of better use.
