In reply to pdoc put me on another antipsychotic, abilfy, posted by radish on March 29, 2019, at 19:12:09
CE, yeah I have a PRN rx for Ativan/lorazepam .5 mg. It is hard to say if it helps with anxiety or if it just slows me down more. I think it helps a little when Im otherwise comfortable and in an elevated mood. Maybe I should try clonozepam instead. I would also like to try lyrica.
The other day I went to a social event with some nice people and had about 1 mg of Ativan in my system, abilify, and had two drinks (one at the event and one before going in). My mind was utterly blank and fearful and I couldnt speak clearly without stumbling over my words and my mind going blank. I would forget things right after they were said and couldnt follow the conversation or keep up with its speed. I hate appearing so slow, its embarrassing. I started comparing myself to others and then I became very sad. Everything is so difficult. Social phobia is so depressing and leads to extreme self loathing and pain, for me. Thats why I cant believe doctors put me on meds thats have no literature that points to response in social phobics. Especially when Nardil exists and has tons of evidence for SP. Especially when Ive tried a dozen meds before that did not help, and I bring in printouts of the MAOI diet and drug restrictions, and I present myself as a pretty responsible, intelligent person (I hope). Its a kind of medical negligence imho.
SP/SA
AvPD
TRD
