> The research abstracts all seem to sing the same song, i.e. that social anxiety can be treated effectively by safe and tolerable drugs such as SSRIs. It is not the message I hear on Babble. It is depressing.
I wonder if a workable approach would be to use an SSRI to effectively treat the social anxiety, together with a dopaminergic (Wellbutrin or methylphenidate) to counteract the SSRI-induced apathy and libidolessness? Has anybody tried this?
