Hey Ted,
10 mg of selegeline alone was hands down the worst med I've ever taken for social phobia. It increased anxiety, but more than that, it made me feel even more like I was under a microscope and that everyone was watching my every movement and analyzing me. Worse, combined with Tyrosine it began giving me delusions, I mean true delusions where I began thinking police sirens were meant for me and that my friends were scheming against me and my girlfriend was cheating on me. I've never experienced delusions before, and they abruptly stopped after discontinuing the deprenyl. I don't want to bust your bubble, so I really hope upping the dosage enough to inhibit MAO-A will prove helpful. Just watch out for possible hypertension. Keep us posted. Good luck!
