A SSRI causing anxiety issues is maybe a possiblity. Personally, a SSRI is the only thing that takes my anxiety issues away to the the degree I need to function, be stable and be well. I know that's not a popular spin here but that is how it is for me.

Benzo's alone can work but one does need to be aware of the slippery slope they can have and the drawbacks they may carry. I'm not speaking just of their potential abuse but when they are used solely in theapeudic ranges. If that plan works, great. But, if treating the anxiety alone with a benzo is not making one well, one has to be willing to change plans. So, just a work of caution from one who has done that.

Have you looked into therapy specifically to deal with intense grief. The loss of your brother - my condolences - is the preface to most of your posts. I suggest a thought in using therapy as resource also.

I also suggest you follow the policy regarding your name changes. We all must do that per policy. Some of us (uh, me for example) have been blocked over problems regarding changing our posting names. I don't quite know why your situation seems to be different.

I am sorry for your loss and I am sorry for your challenges.
