In reply to GAD/Social anxiety----What works??, posted by tina on October 7, 2001, at 16:54:33
I have a brother who I think fits that
description well and appears to be doing much
better since taking Effexor SR for about a year now.
Little desire for Klonopin prn anymore he reports.I have primary SP very severe (untreated)
and find effexor too anxiety provoking for me,
though I didn't add serzone those years ago which
i'd try now.I was surprised but it's possible that GAD patients
may in fact respond well to s + n agonists in spite
of the NE effect. Who understand it all really?
Anyway - reports aside (suggesting effexor), my
brother did well with effexor but not Prozac
or Paxil.I think Paxil could often work well actually, especially
for females.It knocked out my anxiety for for SP was a clear
no-go.kregpark@yahoo.com
