Elliphannte 0 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I've found I've become more paranoid so I know what you mean.I often find it's due to the side-effects of the drug rather than appearing to be related to nothing but the drug itself. For example I often feel weaker, dryer and perspire more on this drug which in turn leads to me feeling more self-concious. Not being able to wear foundation hasn't helped either.However, if you feel there is nothing else that could be causing this increased social anxiety other than the drug then you can always talk to your dermatologist about it if you're concerned.
