Hi MalcolmS -- Are you with us ?

I hope we helped you a little with what you are living.

For my part, I dont think you are someone who is searching for the ultimate buzz that will make you life feel like you were drugged on some street drugs. I see someone who MAY AT WORST be confused between a "Social phobic becoming Normal" and someone who become hypomanic. It's hard to say if in your case you were hypomanic or just so much relivate from social anxiety (and maybe some depression) that you express yourself in strong words that sounds LIKE hypomania. It is often the case with social phobic.

Here's what I think. In 2006 social phobic doesn't have specific medications targetting directly the mecanism of their mental disease and so social phobic need to rely, in part, on antidepressants, which help sometime greatly to reduce their pain. The thing is that is has been proove that much of AD ain't helping as much social phobic than belived in the past. In 80% of the case they initially help for some time before their effeciency decrease to a point where they aren't suffisient to make their social phobic user socially functional.

Some researched the reason for that and had discover that their is a link between social phobia and bipolarity. 80% of social phobic seems to be Bipolar type 2.5 (soon to be called type 4 in the next version of the DSM). This type says that the bipolar is very often becoming hypomanic when put on an AD, but otherwise doesn't have an history of hypomania.

So it's well posible that you are part of those 80% social phobic who is Bipolar 2.5 (yeah I know "2.5" sound VERY weird, but at this time it's called like this by bipolarity experts worldwide).

Now if it's the case you got to understand the phenomen and don't seek those state who aren't permanent and who doesn't help you for a longtime, usually finishing leaving you in a state of despair.

I repeat myself, but I don't thing you are, just like most of the 80% social phobic bipolar type 2.5, a 'thrill seeker' ... we all phobic social searching for an Ad -> WHO WORKS <-, speaking sometime the way you did on you first post.

Give time to Nardil, increase the dose to 90mg if after a time it's not working enough for you. Then if their is nothing to do with Nardil, do like everyone would do.. continue to fight for your right to live a functional, happy (not euphoric) life .. even if it means surfing more AD, like Parnate.

Hope you receive those post so we can share more on our experience, bad drug addiction and even maybe share some drug dealer phone number ;)=

Marty
