In reply to Clomipramine v SSRIs for anxiety disorders..., posted by jms600 on October 30, 2008, at 17:47:30
Since clomipramine has more side effects than most SSRIs, maybe trying an SSRI first might be the way to go. Paxil is supposed to be good for anxiety, but I went manic on it. Everyone is different when it comes to meds. I have a lot of anxiety on top of my depression and Cymbalta helps both ... but then again that's just me.
Lexapro might be a good SSRI to try for anxiety as it is usually quite sedating. Or Luvox for the same reason.
Good luck with whatever you decide to try.
