>My social phobia is very situational and involves profuse sweating. Social settings involving alcohol are an example of a situation where I have experienced this problem in the past, and I believe it is one I have become rather phobic about. Alcohol in itself also seems to make the sweating worse, perhaps by making me feel warmer or some other darned thing.
I'm still on 60 mg Parnate and am doing relatively well. I am currently augmenting it with 0.375 mg Risperdal, going up to 0.5 mg in a few days, and I am finding this very helpful in a number of ways. However, I tend to think my pdoc is correct in his assessment that ziprasidone might be a better choice for me. I will likely discuss this with him at my next appointment.
