Hi Economist,
I find Scott's comments (and the entire thread) helpful on parsing out this symptom. Does sound like your lack of interest is depression based. Nardil has been the gold standard.
For my SA, (and depression), stimulant therapy works, though I suspect an maoi could too. Best to you.

> It sounds like your loss of interest in people runs parallel with your loss of interest in things in general. This is often a prominent feature of depression. You might be more focused on your lack of interest in people because you had previously found meaning in your relationships with them. It is not necessary to have social anxiety in order to let relationships lapse.
