Amongst these, paroxetine has been the most studied, but fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram, and escitalopram can also be effective in alleviating the worst of the symptoms. Venlafaxine can also be effective, but has not been studied for this condition. Another antidepressant, moclobemide, which is a RIMA ( reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase) is also licenced for social anxiety disorder. The older MAOIs can be effective too, but have quite severe side-effects and diet-restrictions. I've also read that clonazepam, a benzodiazepine can be effective, but is very rarely used, so you'd have to do some more research on this.<br><b>References : </b><br> The most commonly used ones are SSRI antidepressants.

It helps a little with my depression and some of my anxiety but not much. What has most helped me with my disorder is practiceing socializeing, writeing in a journal, evaluateing what i fear, and than takeing my time to overcome it. And i've had it for three years and still struggling with it, but everyday gets better.<br><b>References : </b><br> I have social anxiety disorder, and i take flauxetine.
