Hi everyone,
Im new to this forum and have never really written on a forum like this before. I am a 22 year old male who has been suffering from Social Anxiety disorder w/ agoraphobia and panic attack disorder (weh thats a mouth full), I have been dealing with doctors for at least 9 years and have been trying every single medication they give me with an open mind in hopes that i will find the one that will give me an edge on my issues. Ive also tryed cognitive/behavioral theripies, yoga, and meditation to no availe. Right now im currently taking 2mgs of klonopin 3 times a day with an extra available if needed. My doctor, who is not a pysch but rather a GP, recently decided that we attempt some Anti-depressants that i havent tried before, Mainly Seriquile and Welbutrin (buproprion). I had bad problems using Seriquile so now its time to look at welbutrin. Before i take meds i like to research them a lot to see what they actaully do. Now i know that welbutrin has stimulate properties and it has no idications to treat any type of anxiety issue, so should I even bother? I cant even drink coffee with out triggering a panic attack much less take a stimulant everyday. Does anyone have experiance with this drug as a aid for anxiety disorders?
Any input would be great.
