Other folks here know a lot more than I about psych drugs, so this may be way off-base, but what about an AD that boosts norepinephrin? When I went from an SSRI to an SNRI my anxiety, which was my main problem, faded away over the course of a month.
And GAD w/ various sorts of compulsions / obsessions is pretty common according to my NP. Then years ago during my worst period of anxiety I felt compelled to throw myself off a high building even though I was not suicidal -- it was just that once the though occurred to me, I felt a compulsion to carry it out. Which sounds similar to what you describe.
