I have tried all the drugs you have
mentioned, and am very confused with
your docs choice of meds. With typical
anxiety, the first line of meds should
be an SSRI like Celexa, or Zoloft.
I found drugs like Effexor, only made
the anxiety worse (these drugs are typically
perscribed for low energy / low motivation
type depression). Remeron was not strong
enough the Seritonin aspect, of its mechanizm.
I would hate to say that much of her suffering
has been unneccesary, but I would go to the
doctor and discuss an SSRI.
Email me if you have any questions:
