Hi, Michael.
Thanks for this very interesting post.
Were you prescribed the cycloserine for an infection or for the social phobia? What dose are you on? How long will you be taking it?
I just read that for TB, people take it for over a year.
> I hope this is not a placebo effect
I'm not sure what that could mean in this situation. If it were a placebo, that would be great! Perhaps it'd be a good idea to expose yourself now to as many previously intolerably scary situations as you can, with all the attendant CBT stuff: make predictions and compare them to your actual social experiences, focus on the rewards you gain for being in those situations, pay mindful tolerant attention to bodily feelings, etc.
Best wishes and please keep posting about it.
