Hi Donna,

I had the same problem as you with anti-depressants. The ones affecting seratonin made my blood pressure skyrocket, and the ones affecting dopamine made my heart rate take off like a horse! Lol! I never could get to a therapeutic level on any med, whether anti-depressant nor anti-psychotic.

I found the perfect solution! I now take Inderal LA 80mg in the morning, and another dose at bedtime. It is a beta blocker, and it prevents the adrenaline from flooding my heart. Both my blood pressure and my heart rate stay in normal levels now. Plus, it has the added benefit of helping with some of the PHYSICAL problems of social anxiety....racing heart, sweaty hands, dry mouth, blushing, stammering.....it just doesn't help with the PSYCHOLOGICAL problem of fear.

You may want to ask your doctor for Inderal LA.

Hugs,
Sandy
