> Hi Ace,
>
> Have you tried some SSRI's, Effexor or Clomipramine?Yes. Zoloft was rubbish. Luvox I only lasted two days on. Anafranil I have tried 3 times. Each time i cant make it past the third day. First time, I wanted no drugs so I stopped it. SAecond time it worsened my derealization. third time it worsened my depression
But I may try it again (probably will) in the future!
>
> I take it that social anxiety is a much bigger problem for you compared to OCD?Absolutely not. My huge two problems are OCD and phobic anxiety of depersonalization syndrome. I hate labels: overall i am a very anxious person getting caught up in obsessive thoughts. Nardil is THE drug for phobic anxiety, but works great for my dysthmia and depression too.

> My major problem is Atypical depression. My collection of minor problems are initial insomnia, mild social anxiety, mild OCD & IBS agitated by social anxiety.

> Effexor + Remeron covers most of these problems. I decided to take Effexor AFTER reading all the endless horror stories & I am glad that I did.
