Hi There.

I recently saw a doctor. I explained I was having kind of panic attacks in social situations, and that I was also having some kind of dark depression.

I am also taking Retalin already. But I'm not always consistent with it.

I've been socially nervous a lot in my life, but I often hid it with alcohol, or my focusing my brain to relax as much as I could beforehand.

I'm been doing okay, but recently things are not very good.

Here is my experience with Prozac, while taking Retalin.

Day 1 of Fluxetine.
I feel fine today. I'm glad I had the courage to get the Fluxetine. Something that convinced me this could be a good solution was a book called the Happiness Hypothesis by Jonathan Haidt.

Anyway so far so good... My main goal is to be able to meet groups of people, and feel relaxed, without having panic attacks, and escape the gloomy days, which recently vague suicidal thoughts have become visible, but not strong.
