Hi,
Are you really convinced that any benzo will help you long term? their intellect dulling effects and dependence inducing potential are high. I can't understand why they keep prescribing them for this kind of problem. Social phobia, (fear of socializing),take a socializing inducing substance.Yes I know the condition is essentially rooted in anxiety, but one could carefully experiment with small doses of disinhibitory A.D. Through the act of forced socializing, drug induced or otherwise, the coping-learning mechanism is induced. Benzo's harm the coping mechanism by providing a soft cushion/barrior to the threatening stimulus,( much in the same way as drink does) rather than a novelty seeking confrontational approach to the problem,which some dopaminergics could provide.
Amisulpride, Tianeptine, Modafinal Bupropion ( Zyban)spring to mind as disinhibitory in a positive way.
