No response to Effexor XR/300mg for Anxiety

Posted by utopizen on December 1, 2002, at 12:21:12

I have been taking Effexor since September, now at 300mg, and have been for a few weeks. I use to be at 225, and earlier at 150.

I have social anxiety, although mild. Oddly, not responding to anything besides Klonopin, but I'd like to avoid it as much as my p-doc would (although I'll admit, if they were sold near the Blistex OTC, I would pop them daily). I've tried Paxil, Celexa, Buspar, Neurontin, and Gabitril, to no avail.

Should i add Wellbutrin, or Serzone (which I know nothing about) or something else, or just drop the Effexor? Anyone combine their Effexor for anxiety? I have no side effects from Effexor. And oddly, this new Gabitril I am trying now, it just acts as a mild sedatative, oddly similar to Benadryl's feeling on me.
