> Welcome to babble. You're English is fine. Can you try CBT and see if that works alone for you first? Could. But other than benzos I don't know and hope others answer your question. If I might ask why did you stop the other and want to go on a strong MAOI if not depressed? Phillipa

Thank you for the warm welcome, Philipa :) Yes, I suppose I could, but I am just scared that CBT not will be enough. I have to get back to work as soon as possible. I stopped Paroxetin because it did not help with my social anxiety problem, on the contrary - I got general anxiety from it. I also was not able to focus, slept too much, was apathetic.

As doctors here will not prescribe benzos for too long, they swear to SSRI's (do not work for me), I figured that the doc more likely would give me Nardil than benzos for long term treatment. And no problem getting Nardil.

The only reason I would try Nardil now I think is that because it affects GABA and people say it's good for SA. On the other hand it boosts serotonin in the brain, which I am convinced is not what I need at all. I am afraid of getting the same symptoms I got from Paroxetine/Paxil.
