Hey nice to meet you all first off, I've been here a while doing lots of reading and so on, and finally decided to join in. I was wondering if I could get some help with these issues, as they've been going on far too long by now, I'm hitting my limit. I've had severe social anxiety for years now, it's gotten better but still far off, the main problem is my mind goes completely blank when it comes to talking to someone, and so my social anxiety is worse in that regards of fear of talking to people and going blank and having nothing to say.
The only thing that helps me get through is a high extract of kava for now but it's by no means a cure. And then the other problem is mostly as a result of having social anxiety and it ruining years of life, and keeping me alone, I've got refractory depression now, and literally nothing works anymore.. Nardil saved my life before but burnt out and stopped working and I ended up worse than before.. now the only thing that kinda works but I don't consider this a treatment cause it stops working after 3 days is modafinil. When I take that it's like a switch goes off and I become more assertive, barely any social anxiety full of motivation, everything it felt like when I was normal and when Nardil worked. But that also only works 3 days then hits tolerance and I have to wait a week or so to take it again..
My depression is so heavy I can't do even the simplest tasks as it takes so much energy.. and every single day at night it gets the most severe..
I've heard about how too much serotonin can cause some issues such as social anxiety and depression, could something like meteroline help? I'm just clueless I've studied so much, and tried so many things some work then stop working after a while, but most don't work at all. Also I'm still taking Nardil as I'm not quite sure how to get off it, without even more depression coming up. Could this be a problem? Do I need to let my monoamines rest? If anyone can help out or offer any advice I would highly appreciate it, because what I try isn't working.
