It may be the class of medications you are on. I too, cannot tolerate SSRI'S, or SNRI'S. I tried them all. Zoloft, Paxil, Zoloft, Prozac, Lexaoro, Cymbalta, Lexapro, etc. Made me feel emotionally numb. Then I got hospitalized in 2005, for major depressive disorder and severe anxiety. They put me on Remeron 45mg. And Klonopin (benzodiazepine) 2mg twice a day for panic attacks and severe anxiety. The Remeron took me out of deepest, darkest depression I have ever had, I take it at bedtime along with 2mg of Klonopin and it stops the anxiety and racing thoughts and helps me sleep. Then I was able to find a good mental health clinic. The Psychiatrist added Wellbutrin 300 XL, which is not an SSRI, or SNRI. Busphar for anxiety (which is not addictive or habit forming like benzos). As well as Topamax for emotion regulation and Trazadone, a tricyclic (I think), a low dose to be taken on occasion for insomnia and break through anxiety. I hope this helps.

Have u tried SSRE ?
There's only one kind of SSRE you can google it. It is not as strong as SSRI and doesnt have any side effects.
