> Klonopin--complete anxiety relief, mild muscle relaxation... lasted about 12 hours, though I couldn't truly appreciate its effects until I'd been taking it for a few weeks--then one day I just noticed I felt so much better ~ Nardil--absolutely nothing, except anorgasmia and orthostatic hypotension. Not even the slightest change mentally, even with my dysthymia.

> It was definitely an issue with Klonopin, but not to a great degree. Fact is, no drug will work for social phobia unless you're willing to go out and get yourself in the mix--Klonopin allowed me to do that.
>Ame, you take picamilon, right? How has it worked for you re: social phobia?
