Being anti-social and meds...and Zoloft?

Posted by jay on June 25, 2002, at 15:21:59

I know many on here suffer from social phobia. I have a very nasty case of it, and because of so, lost all of my friends, a good job, and a girlfriend of two years.
I just wanted to get people's individual experience with what meds helped the most.(*Besides* the MAOI's..) I am not looking to turn into some 'party animal', but just want enough relief so that answering the telephone doesn't scare the living hell out of me.
Some people may be looking for a major reduction of inhibition. I just want enough so I can actually leave the house and speak to people.
I was reading above about Bookgurl's experience with taking Zoloft every other day. I am tempted to try it...but Zoloft made my life very, very hell-ish at one point in time.
Any comments appreciated...and thank you kindly in advance.
Jay
