I just read this thread and am pretty surprised nobody's asked about what kind of therapy you're getting. Is your psychiatrist working with you on a regular basis doing CBT or anything like that or is he just deciding what drugs you should be on? Have you been doing meditation, yoga, or anything else for relaxation? These things are really important. I've been on a couple different meds for anxiety, and am still on one, but I never started to really feel better until I started talking to a councellor about all this and got some good, objective advice. So my advice is if your psychiatrist is just trying to treat your condition medically you should find a councellor/therapist that specializes in anxiety and addiction.
