(earlier doc tried FLUOXETINE, SERTRALINE, ESCITALOPRAM ,they affected my learning abilities ,they didn't suit either,so doc switched to PAROXETINE now)
issues like brain fog,lack of emotion,etc would it improve with time or SSRI is not suiting me.

You can continue the medication for 2 weeks and if you still have such symptoms that mean ssri as class is not working for you. You need to change the class of medication. Discuss with your treating psychiatrist about and find another option. All the best
