Does anyone have any tips for gaining energy? I am on Paxil, and I am sleepy all day and night. Even if I have had 10 -12 hours sleep. I have tried Hydroxycut from GNC, and it helped. But one day my stomach would tolerate it, and the next it wouldn't. I have found another herbal supplement, called Energy Support with B-12 and Ginseng. But I am worried that that too will aggrivate my stomach. Any suggestions?

I can relate. I am actually seeing my doctor tomorrow to ask about getting off Paxil because of the sleepiness. It has helped a lot but isn't worth it if I am sleepy all the time. If she has any good suggestions I'll let you know.

You Might want to try colestid. It is actually a cholestrol medicine but works great for IBS because it causes constipation and most NORMAL people can not take it. Although it does cause gas.
