Anyone out there had experience with Manerix & if so how was it for you???? Did it help with depression???
I've only briefly tried Celexa for a few days before backing off because of hot flushes, perspiration and racing heart in a.m. as well as dull sense of anomie, alienation, fatigue, yawning, etc. Still uncertain which is worse the symptoms of depression & social anxiety or the symptoms from the meds. -- hard to seperate at times effect and cause and whether the ADs exaserbate the situation. Sucks eithe way!!!
> Hi Douglas: I too suffer from Social Anxiety (OCD too). I was recently on a drug called Manerix which I found was quite effective with my Social Anxiety. I felt very "sharp" mentally, (something I dislike about the SSRI's which make me apathetic and mentally foggy). It stopped my tremors. (However I did feel a little "edgy".) I was on quite a small dose, but had to come off of it as it exacerbated my OCD... (It's part of the MAOI family - a newer drug - no (or little) dietary restrictions.) ...(Also no sexual side effect with the Manerix.)

> > I have been suffering from mild social phobia for the last 20 years...This is my third day of 10 mgs of Celexa. I amm supposed to gradually increase the dosage. I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with Celexa or any other ssri as part of a treatment plan for social phobia. Also, is anyone taking Celexa without experiencing similar side effects ?
