I wish the AD(Celexa) worked for my anxiety, all it does realy to make me feel beter. The Zyprexa is the one. I should have mentioned it earlier. Thanks for giving hope.! I do belive it happens for a good reason, befor all this I realy had no clue, now I try to do beter even if it does not feel normal. Hope we all get better.

> Hi Sebastian,

> I know exactly how you feel. You sound like how I was for the last 6 years. I thought if I just did this, if I just did that, I could make the anxiety go away. I was super hyper-aware of myself. It actually helped me in a lot of ways though to become a better person. I developed a big complex - anything I did or said that I felt wasn't the right thing would bring on the anxiety. It made me strive more to be the person that I want to be, so it hasn't been all bad. This may sound corny, but sometimes, I even wonder if this has all happened for that purpose. It's definitely been a hard road, but I guess it's the hard stuff we go through in life that are the learning experiences and make us better people.

> How are the AD's doing for your anxiety? I'm not sure which is worse, anxiety or depression, but I wouldn't settle for either. Since I've gone on Trileptal (which is the 3rd mood stabilizer I've been on), I have been feeling so much more stable. It's only been 3 weeks so far, but if it doesn't last, I will be trying something else. My goal now is to remain stable and from all that I've read, it is attainable. I won't give up and I hope you don't either : )
