In reply to Thanks, JahL. Is your social phobia severe?, posted by jb on March 10, 2001, at 1:50:03
> > Hi, JahL. Is your social phobia severe?
I think the severity of my s. phobia is related to the severity of my depression. Unmedicated, my depression is as bad as it gets right now so I suspect the s. phobia wld be pretty incapacitating, but it's hard to tell since the Sulpiride's kept it under control for the past year.

Gabapentin might be another anti-convulsant worth considering.

Neither did *anything*, tho' Klonopin helps w/sleep.
Do you have a good pdoc? Social phobia is a notoriously obstinate condition to treat.
