Hi I'm a 20 yr old from Ohio. I have Social Anxiety & Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.... also some depression. The worst is my social anxiety... I've been tried on Paxil, Effexor, Prozac w/low dose of Risperdal. On all of these I've felt less depressed but none of them has helped a bit with my social anxiety and that's what I want to get better the most. I've researched a lot on the internet and it seems a Maoi such as Nardil or Parnate have been the most successful for SAD. The thing is my psychiatrist hasn't ever prescribed one before and doesn't want to. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good psychiatrist I could see in Ohio ... someone more experienced with SAD. Also... and input about successful meds for SAD would be great. Thanks a lot, Josh.
