Answers:
Paxil and similar drugs can effect the body in a variety of ways. If your pee-problem has only been while you've been taking Paxil, I'd assume it was related.
Don't stop taking Paxil- wean off it slowly, by 5mg every week. Since you've only been on it 4-6 weeks, you probably won't have much difficulty.
Yes, you can still have anxiety attacks while on Paxil or other drugs. Anxiety is a symptom of a problem, sort of like your body's warning bell. Using drugs to blunt the symptom doesn't cure the problem. Your anxiety (which means, the symptoms of anxiety-- racing heart, dizziness, feeling faint, sweaty hands, etc.) could be from something like anemia, a poor diet, a thyroid problem, a hormone imbalance, or you could even just be very sensitive to something as common as caffeine.
