>Remeron would do well for that. MAOI's are good for phobias generally, but probably work best for "specific" phobias. Bottom line--like you say--if you are depressed you aren't going to be interested in socializing!
i think you and lisa both have some good ideas...
you see there is active social phobia like talking to people that antidepressants and hypomania and narcissism definately solve!
but then there is passive (agitated?) agoraphobia.. like having to sit still for 2 or 3 hours in a movie theatre, for a test, in a car... and hypomania and desire to socialize doesn't really motivate me to conquer these (it probably makes my agitation more energetic)
advice?
