My form of social anxiety is very annoying. I’m not scared of people and I know that I shouldn’t be nervous because no one actually cares what you do unless you’re doing something that warrants attention. I have hyperhidrosis which makes my anxiety even worse, because when I sweat I get anxious and when I get anxious I sweat even more. I’ve been doing something research on some drugs for hyperhidrosis and for anxiety.
Hyperhidrosis:
Glycopirrolate
Oxybutynin
These are the 2 main drugs used and I’m probably going to ask to be prescribed glyco

Social Anxiety:
Propranolol
Pregabalin

Propranolol is the thing I’m considering the most rn since it doesn’t really do anything to ur brain so u won’t become dependent or get withdrawls. It also doesn’t have many side effects especially if u do a low dose. I also think that it’ll be really good since a lot of my anxiety is physical stuff like shaky voice, facial flushing, and sweating obv.
Pregab is enticing but I’m hesitant bc of the dependency.

I forgot to mention that rn I’m doing 300 mcg of selank intranasally everyday, but my spray is only 5 mg so it’ll be out fast.

So after all of that talk ig my question is what should I try to get prescribed first out of every drug out there. There’s probably things that I don’t even know exist that’d help me. Or should I just do prop and maybe glyco?

You're probably not gonna listen but stay away from pregabalin that shit fucked by eyesight up.
Great drug tho, shame about the sides.

Ik that’s always gonna be the best way to get over the anxiety but I mean the sweating is a condition I have that can’t go away so I feel like the glyco would be a big quality of life upgrade even when I’m by myself

No I def will listen I’m almost 100% not taking it since I want something I can take daily and Pregab is the opposite

What helped me was to try to make small wins everyday for example when I should’ve gone to the gym said day and I didn’t go that subconsciously act weirder. Idk if it will work for you as that’s more of a confidence thing but try it
 
imo propranalol is all you really need

could pair it with l-theanine tho for a relatively harmless combo

That’s why this is annoying bc I literally have confidence and not to be cocky but I’m smarter and better looking than most people around me. I’m just hindered by my nervous system.

Damn that pretty messed up. Just try to lie to yourself that you’re normal and don’t have anxiety. I do have those symptoms of my face twitching when I’m talking to someone or stuttering or not knowing to do with my eyes,hands etc. but you know what works best for you

That’s why I’m thinking that something simple like prop and glyco would be insane since they would get rid of my physical problems which is my main thing

Explain further please, I got those 150mg pills I ordered off indiamart, used only twice for sleep tho and I felt alright.
 
Gb-115 can help if ur social anxiety is due to GAD like reasons because social inhibition is mainly caused by your GABA receptors not CCK.
Also pregab is neurotoxic and downregulates GABA; GB-115 doesn’t do that. It agonizes cholecystekinin-1 (CCK) which provides long term therapeutic anxiolytic effects
