Hi Gary,
If you get off the Serzone for two weeks, you could try Nardil, a MAOI. Like clonazepam it affects the GABA receptors and thus is one of the best antidepressants for anxiety and social anxiety. In my opinion, it should also be a 2nd tier choice for atypical depression.

Make sure that your doctor has checked your liver function after so many years on Serzone. The stomach problems could be one of the early symptoms of liver failure, which is a rare side effect of Serzone.

The MAOIs are not without side effects, but for severe treatment reistant depression and social anxiety, they can work when nothing else has.

I am so sorry about your brother and best friend. A stressor like that when you are already depressed and anxious can be almost unbearable.
Be Well,
Jedi
