Annie, I really feel for you. I know of one person with social phobia and depression who was helped tremendously by effexor. In general,though, Nardil seems to be the most effective drug. Are you willing to put up with the side effects? Neurontin seems quite useful--why not add it to the effexor? THe other drugs I've heard to be useful are mostly from overseas: notably, amisulpride, adrafinil, and edronax/reboxetine. SSRIs sometimes work. I had a good response from prozac once, but have not been able to duplicate it.
