Psychiatrist 's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Seroxat contains paroxetine and it is a antidepressant. Psychiatrists also use antidepressant in anxiety symptoms or somatic symptoms. If you were on this drug, that does not mean that you were depressed. May be due to somatic symptoms, he had prescribed that drug to you. There is nothing wrong in it. In case, you have any doubt without this, you can ask me.

Thanks
