Hi:I just wanted to say..congratulations...and even with your unique med consumption, I have started doing some research into anxiety disorders, and have even come to the conclusion that treating anxiety often treats and relieves depression.
I am really bothered by a few things about anxiety treatment (or *lack* of it), and that is the over-hype of antidepressants for anxiety, which I think can make anxiety *worse*...despite the drug company adverts. I am starting to think *both* bipolars and anxiety prone people should *not* take antidepressants. If they do, a potent anti-anxiety med like Xanax should be used (at *effective* levels), and the antidepressant should be used at the smallest dose.
Anyhow...sorry for rambling...but am happy all is well for you!
Best,
Jay
