> I don't know the effects of Serzone on anxiety. I take it as an adjunct to Effexor. For me, it is somewhat sedating, which is why I take it,that is, to counter the activating effects of effexor. I take it at night only.

> What I do know that I feel is important for you to know, is that INITIALLY, I felt agitated and very emotional when I started the Serzone. Others here have reported a similar INITIAL repsonse, including agitation and rage. These seem to pass after a few weeks. Also, initially, I felt a bit uncoordinated and groggy. But that faded, too.
Al, I agree with Noa...the initial effects were strange for me (dizziness, easy irritability and easy anger; these diminished after a couple of weeks). Then I noticed a large decrease in social anxiety and improved mood, as well as much improved sleep. I'd still be taking Serzone I think if I helped with OCD!--Cindy W
