In reply to has anyone taken effexor xr for social anxiety?, posted by ann72 on January 5, 2004, at 8:52:46
HI Ann,
I tried Effexor for SA and it seemed to help. But it definitely didn't correct the imbalance in my brain. I tried Geodon after I was diagnosed with BPII (finally) and it has worked like a charm. I eventually stopped taking the Effexor and very glad I did. Geodon is working better alone than when I combined it with the Effexor.
I think you may be BPII...read up on it and see if the shoe fits...it is the most misdiagnosed disease out there and unipolar meds are so bad for us Beepers.
Good luck and keep posting!!!
