I have heard that high levels of the neurotransmitter Norepinephrine can result in anxiety. If so, couldnt Beta Blockers help Social Phobia?
For me, whenever I have to call somebody on the phone (especially a person in authority) I get really edgy and anxious. Sometimes when I feel someone is blaming me for something I didnt do, I can feel my face feel up with blood and I blush and sweat and everything else. Anyone else have this problem and WHAT DO YOU DO FOR IT?
My opinion is that this has to do with the fight or flight response=norepinephrine. Maybe a overload of this chemical. So, how about someone taking something like Clonidine, sometbing that lowers this chemical. Anyone think this would work?
