> That's the problem so far none of them except luvox has helped. With all the others my anxiety is so extreme i literally feel like my head will explode. And thanks for your answer I'm on valium and what you say could very well be true. Fondly, Phillipa
Sure. Well, there are sooo many ADs that can be effective for anxiety--keep trying. In the meantime, try switching to Klonopin. Valium and most other benzos are so short-acting, that--to me--they almost seem to worsen anxiety, because you can actually *feel* it wearing off. Klonopin absolutely brings (my) anxiety to its knees--every time. And its long-acting effect, for me, I think tends to make me "forget" about what caused me to be worried--or it interrupts the anxiety for a long enough time that I don't just revert to panic.
