I know this goes against everything on here, this old drug with tons of side effects... Anti-androgen and blocks the progesterone receptor...
But it seems to be the only drug that helps my social anxiety... and I have tried many, many meds... I believe it has to do with the effect it has on CRHR1 receptors and its wide-spread effect on the brain.. I'm curious has anyone been on valproate also known as valproic acid and did you find it made you calm and less socially anxious? & is there anything I can do to overcome the anti-androgenic and progestergonic (spelling?) effect? Progesterone oil I assume for the latter but what for the former?
