High everyone
I used to post under the name TheOutsider.
I suffer from social anxiety, as you have probably guessed! And live in the UKFor years I used GHB to treat my SA.
I know others have had bad experiences with this med, but for me it was a god send.It is now no longer possible to obtain GHB over the internet, and I have tried various other forms of medication without success.
To make things simple I have compiled a list of the treatments I have tried
Klonopin - Helped, but unfortunately made me depressed and sleepy so I didn’t feel particularly sociable.
Pregabalin/Lyrica - Helped initially but then seemed to loose effect, even taking med holidays did not help to restore effectivness.
Tramadol/Ultram - Didn’t help
Effexor XL - at 225mg helped depression but not social anxiety
Clomipramine – helped a little at 150mgs
Fluoxetine – Didn’t help at all
Citalopram – Didn’t help
Diazapam – Didn’t help
Moclobemide – Didn’t help
Dexedrine – Alone this didn’t help social anxiety, did help in combination with Clomipramine, almost impossible to get prescribed in the UK
Please give me some hope.
Is Nardil likely to succeed were all these other treatments have failed? Is CBT a good idea?
Are there any other drugs that might be helpful which are going to be released in the UK at any point soon?
