Sure, there are clinical trials that seem to indicate that APs are effective for anxiety, but there are clinical trials for all the other drugs you have tried to augment with as well. In my experience, APs are not good for anxiety. I have read that they can actually exacerbate OCD. APs are not first choice meds for OCD because they are not as effective as SSRI's or other antidepressants and benzodiazepines for most people. (In my opinion, of course.)
