> > I said in a previous post that I'd give updates as to how this drug effects Social Phobia. It's been about two weeks so far. I take 200 - 300mg a day, and I have practically no anxiety symptoms at all. No fatigue, either. So that's great, but at the same time, I haven't noticed any prosocial effects either. I'm thinking the dose might be too high. I ordered smaller pills, and will reduce the dose to about 150 mg/day to see if there's any difference.

I felt the calming effects of Picamilon on the first day. It did not make me restless at all. For the first week, it tightened my chest a little for about an hour after the first dose in the mornings. That stopped after a week. Now I have no anxiety at all. None. Also, the dosage I'm taking (300 mg a day) is higher than recommended, so lower doses may have even better effects.
