> In truth "Social phobia" seems a problem rooted in psychology and those seeking addictive drugs for it are doing just that, "drug seaking". I just do not see SP as a wholly organic in cause, unless it is secondary to a personality, thought or other diorder. Thearpy is the treatment, though meds may help. Demanding the treatment be numbing drugs seems like one is totally avoiding the psychological problem at hand. I feel one has gone far beyond "treatment" and right into "lets get high". Calling it "treatment" while giving directions to go to Mexico to get Mophine Sulphate seems way far away from thearpy.
