In reply to Alcohol still the best med for social phobia, posted by 3 Beer Effect on November 16, 2001, at 12:24:50
Nardil is probably the best antidepressant for social phobia. Klonopin and Xanax are also known to be effective (not necessarily more or less so); you may not be taking a high enough dose of Klonopin.
Neurontin is an anticonvulsant that some people find effective for social anxiety. Worth a try -- it felt like Xanax to me (but it gave me the munchies).
Alcohol is very bad for your health (particularly, for your liver); benzos are preferable and should work if you are on the right dose. There is some cross-tolerance.
Morphine is perfectly legal, and effective for social phobia, if you can get a doctor to prescribe it. Ultram might be easier to get.
