What exactly was Rock Climbing Rob Robinson's suffering on Paxil - read on - Rob Robinson you are a joke !

An Injection of Itching Powder

SSRIs' darkest side may be the suicide risk. But other adverse effects may pose just as big a problem for drugmakers. In the mid-1990s, for example, horror stories about SSRI withdrawal symptoms began circulating on the Internet, signaling a controversy that is now nearly as bitter as the one about suicide. One of its leading crusaders, Rob Robinson, a building contractor in Signal Mountain, Tenn., recently organized a protest against GlaxoSmithKline at its U.S. headquarters in Philadelphia. He held a BOYCOTT GLAXOSMITHKLINE sign as he paced the sidewalk in front of the high-rise building along with a handful of fellow protesters.
A rock climber of renown--Climbing magazine once put him on its cover--Robinson, 45, says his experience with SSRIs started in 1998. He had committed to do a traveling exhibition on climbing, but the project stressed him out and interfered with his sleep, so his doctor prescribed Glaxo's Paxil. After a few weeks on the drug, Robinson says, "I felt calmer. I thought, 'That's good.'" Quitting it after a half-year, though, "I started having what I now know are withdrawal symptoms," he asserts, including muscle spasms, extreme sensitivity to sound, and "horrible electric-shock sensations in my head." He went back on Paxil to alleviate the symptoms. Eventually concluding he had a drug dependency, he found a specialist who took him off the drug in 18 days. That triggered severe symptoms that Robinson claims brought him to the brink of suicide. "I finally opened a door at the far side of hell after about 18 months," he says.
Today Robinson runs a website on Paxil's risks and has sued Glaxo, charging that it deliberately failed to warn about the drug's potential to cause severe withdrawal symptoms. Some 3,000 similar suits against Glaxo have been filed across the country over the past few years, says Karen Barth Menzies, an attorney at Baum Hedlund, a Los Angeles law firm that has handled many SSRI-related suits.
