Deneb, if it works, who cares what the drug is called? I know that doesn't help, but I'm working on believing it myself.
I have unipolar depression, anxiety disorder, and anorexia (though my weight is UP -- way too high, thus part of my current crash), NO psychotic symptoms of any sort, nothing to suggest anything like bipolar, nothing -- just depression, anxiety, and an eating disorder. Today my brand new psychiatrist started talking about the drugs we'd be trying as soon as I either have a baby or give up. Heavy talk about atypical antipsychotics -- which she says work great for anxiety, and augment antidepressants.
Although I can certainly see being uncomfortable with that, especially since I have some discomfort with it myself, but honestly -- if it helps, try not to worry what its called. And Deneb? It does help you.
