Anyone have any follow-up on this? Find this combination to be quite interesting. I wonder how this would work in combination with Xanax XR (something like 0.5 mg x 2 daily) at least for initial anxiety effects.... I have both anxiety and depression with the anxiety somewhat stronger - but being controlled by the Xanax to an extent. Doing nothing for the depression so far. That's why this combo sounded so interesting.

I have been given SSRI's, but they just didn't do the trick for my diagnosis (generalized + social anixety). I can tell you this though, I've been doing so well, that I don't bother reading Psycho-Babble. So, in my case, there is truth to the notion that if you're feeling well, there not much motivation to read or post.

> It is great that Selegiline is working for you. I did not know that Selegiline was good for anxiety, so it is especially good news to hear that it does. I have been taking 5mg Selegiline + varying amounts of DLPA since June, and it has helped my anergic anhedonic depression more than any other med ever has. But I still have problems with insomnia. Do you have insomnia with Selegiline, and if so how have you dealt with it? I seem to remember that you tried Amisulpride for a while. I am thinking of asking my doctor to add it to Selegiline (I am going through a stressful period right now). What was your experience with Amisulpride? Do you think it would work well with Selegiline?
