Buspar turned around my social anxiety. I do all sorts of social activities that I could not do before.
The atypical antipsychotics (Risperdal, Zyprexa or Seroquel) are the meds that turned my depression around. They elevate dopamine levels in the brain which works for me. Very low dose works for me.
And Strattera (25mg) takes care of PTSD symptoms (similar to ADHD symptoms).
There is hope. Took me years to find the right meds. Hang in there and keep trying.
