Have you tried the SSRI route? Or augmenting
Buspar with an SSRI? Or Serzone. Serzone is
good at zapping anxiety and helping sleep
(except it can make you drowsy). Be careful
mixing Serzone with Buspar though. Serzone will
spike buspar blood levels due to interactions.Another fringe otc supplement for anxiety is 5-htp.
A little controversial.
It is a dud for treating depression, but it did
wonders for my anxiety and sleep at the time.Sorry the Inderal sucked. I just took it when I
had a bad reaction on MAOI's or Remeron and my
heart would race and I would wake up in pools of
sweat. I took 20 mg of Inderal and it stopped these
problems for the evening. The downside was that it
flattened out my mood.Another Idea is the BP med tenex (guanfacine)
or Catapres (Clonodine). I would be surprised if
clonodine didn't help. Just some suggestions.
Everyone's results may vary.good luck,
