Hey Ed, Thanks for asking!

It makes me feel a bit less lonely, which is good as Social anxiety is probably one of the loneliest condition of all.

In answer to how my Social anxiety is at the pressent I would say not a bad as in the past, however it is still having a significant negative impact on my life.

As for medication I am currently taking 150mg of Effexor XL, I have been at this dosage for just over a month. It didn't seem to be helping much, however in the last couple of days I have felt a bit better, maybe this is the Effexor kicking in? Or Perhaps I'm just in a good mood, who knows.

I used to take GHB 'as needed' for situations that would trigger my social anxiety.
Currently I have replaced this with Klonopin, which doesn't work nearly as well, but it does help significantly.

I'm still looking for the ideal treatment really, I can't take Klonopin long term (and I also wouldn't want to, if it could be avioded!)

Take care Ed
