Wow! Sounds like you've been through way toooooo much hell! I'm really sorry to hear that your experiences with AD's have not worked out. Don't feel bad for writing so much. Sometimes, we just need to verbalize.
Anyway, don't know how much help I can be to you. New to AD's. Started taking Lexapro about 2 months ago (first AD ever been on) for anxiety and panic attacks. I know how debilitating and scary they can be.
We are all different, and what may work for one may not work for another, but it doesn't seem to me that one should experience anxiety and panic attacks on a med. But, then again, I'm not a doctor. Luckily for me, my anxiety instantly improved on the Lex. Not saying that you should switch, but it's a thought. Have heard alot of success stories with people on Lexapro.
I really hope things get better for you. You shouldn't have to live this way. Please hang in there and seek out as much help as you need. Do what is right for you.
Hugs,
Arrianna
