> Serzone (nefazodone) worked well for me for years. It's an SRI but not in the SSRI family. No longer available in Canada but I believe generic may be available in US & elsewhere.
Have to be cautious about liver tests with Serzone -- it has a non zero risk of liver disease. Good thing with such is that jaundice usually is well observed before any real harm happens.
> Soma seems to help me. It's prescribed as a muscle relaxant but is closely related to the anxiolytic meprobamate (see some recent posts). It's actually metabolized to meprobamate -- you might call it Meprobamate XR <g>
Soma -- sigh, the medication I cant mix with my mixture. It has additive CNS depression and for some can be as habituating as Miltown (meprobamate).
