what do they make you feel like, does it do nothing!?!?!??! is it not worth going to the doctor and explaining him my life story for these things and them not working!?!?!
Hahaa.I got boner loss
That is in deed the problem with SSRI's. I wonder how many people try them hoping to feel happy or control there introversion symptoms.They make life more tolerable, but they won't necessarily make you happy.........
........SSRI's lessen painful emotional responses, but they don't actually change your personality or turn you into a "zombie". .......
I've always wondered why that is the caseDontTrustheGov't said:I got boner loss
Just one thing I'll add. When I took SSRI's the next day after drinking I felt freakin great. Hangover free, positive thoughts remained, everything. Much much better than how I feel drinking when not taking SSRI's. Not only that when taking SSRI's I don't get tired from drinking. Where many people drink a lot and get tired, I was able to keep on goin like a rockstar. And also the whole buzzed experience was much much better.When you drink heavily on SSRI's you feel real bad the next day cause it messes with the neurotransmitters.
I finally made that decision the other day bro. My parnate is on the way I'll be starting late next week. Was hoping it wouldn't come to that at least for now, but for me at this point in time hell there is only one way to go and that's up so it's worth any chance.UltraShy has tried most of the modern ADs and drugs to treat anxiety/depression and only a very high dosage of Xanax (10mg/day) takes the edge off his SA. With a MAOI he would probably have a 50:50 chance to significantly improve his condition, but he made the decision to not take that chance.
Ask. Don't even waste your time making an appointment with a doctor unless you know up front if s/he is willing to prescribe an MAOI is such treatment is indicated (like if you're tried lots of other meds and failed them all). If you want an MAOI there is no point in going to a doc that isn't willing to prescribe them to anybody.Do doctors prescribe MAOI'S?
I'd have to question the part about TCAs being so effective for anxiety. This is an anxiety forum, specifically SA, yet I can't think of anyone here who's taking a TCA for SA. Actually, I can't think of anybody who's reported success using a TCA for their SA.TCAs and MAOIs are highly effective at treating depression and anxiety. They're much worse in the side effects department but it is very likely they'll provide substantial relief from your problems.
