Hi Eric,
All the meds you've suggested do not do much at all for SA. I think I experience it pretty strongly. I've become agoraphobic, and between that and panic, things kinda s*ck, but at least I enjoy being home :)
I am set to do CBT, and hopefully it will help. I've done it extensively before and still had abdominal pain when in many social situations.
Today the doc shot down nortriptyline for now instead suggesting Brintellix. Hard for me to be enthusiastic about any treatment. I took a pass for now.
Thank you for the Keppra suggestion. I'll keep that in mind.
