> Ross, I'm thinking about starting Nardil for depression and General Anxiety Disorder. I've read hear that people use it for social phobia, but I don't know if it is as good for GAD. Do you know if it works for this?
hmmm... i had general anxiety and social phobia, but my social phobia was definately a lot worse than GAD ... maybe that's just me though... what do you think? ...
... GAD was always with me but social phobia was only when i was around people -- and was severe enough that i could not stand it and had to be away from people... ummm... if GAD was as bad as social phobia (if that horrible feeling was with me all the time) i would have had to have immediately gone to an emergency room ..... like i mean if i were around people i would experience watering eyes, constant need to clear throat, all because of an intense terror... i just can't imagine feeling that way all the time...
so i imagine if a drug can work for social phobia it can definately work for GAD...... but then your GAD must be worse than mine if you are still looking for a med to get rid of it... cuz i think pretty much all meds worked fine on GAD for me...
... or maybe your GAD is just more treatment resistant? ...
