hey I was just wondering if any of you take or have taken Propranolol..I heard about it but looked it up and it didn't say anything about anxiety, just hypertension and heart problems. I ordered it and this is like my last hope...Did it help you at all?

For different people the result is different but it really really helps me. Normally if I go to an interview I'm panicking like crazy. Yesterday with only propranolol, I had five people intervieing me at once....and I had minimal nervousness. If you feel like you panic unbearably with a punding heart, propranolol should help you a lot.

ive posted a few times about this drug, ive heard everyone say great things about it.

i ordered some online the other day , its a bloody fortune without a prescription.

but now im seriously considering canelling the orfer or just tossing it.

i went to the psychologist after he had spoken to my doctor, who also phoned a psychiatrist about it...they all said no, they all think this drug is not a good idea for me. ...and its not because of a medical condition, they just told me not to mess around with those drugs.

I dont get it.... im hearing different things and its confusing. as far as i know theres no real risk anyway. its not addictive and if you take a small dose (10mg) then you dont run the risk slowing your heart too much.

what are they risks? anyone know why they dont like prescribing this?

I took 10 mg of propranolol an hour before my wedding ceremony and it worked wonderfully. My head didn't shake, I didn't stutter, and I didn't turn red. I highly recommend it (unless you have low blood pressure).

Can I ask where you ordered it from?

i actually checked the site you mentioned earlier, but misread the order form, I thought you needed a prescription so i ordered some from another site which were pretty expensive.

...anyways i just went back to the site you recommended and realised id misread it........ bugger.

ive tried to cancel the original order so i can get them from the site you mentioned... alothough the site i went to had 10mg tablets which is a little better cause i dont want a lot (spode i could break them up though).

i'll get them but i might not take them, im a little aprahensive after the doc told me not to mess around with them. especially if its only for exams.

Be careful if you are using them for exams, becuase I've noticed that propranolol makes you a bit clumsy. It's similar to drinking a can of beer and then go driving.

Beta-blockers barely worked in performance situations for me. I tried it in university (for presentations, etc.) and had to combine it with my regular anti-anxiety med. I dunno, maybe it'll work for you. :)

Don't lose hope! :wink:

I tried it a couple of years ago and it made me feel like I wanted to faint all the time and like I was always trying to get more air and couldn't get enough, it was a horrible feeling, so i wouldn't recommend it but Im sure it works different on different people, so it may work for you.
