Thanks Ed. I am taking Anafranil, which seems to be doing a fairly good job on anxiety and depression even at only 50 mg. I may go up to 75 mg in the next week or so if the natural supplements I will be trying don't help with the residual anhedonia. As for the anticipatory anxiety, I think I will just stick with the Xanax since I am used to it. Plus, my pdoc does not really want to give me benzos. So, I will just use the Xanax I have on hand if and when I need it.
Take care.
